Overview

HAVOC is a heavy, 8x8 wheeled robotic combat vehicle being developed jointly by Milrem Robotics and the UAE's EDGE Group, with prototype completion planned for end-2025, testing running through 2026-2027 and first delivery to the UAE targeted for 2028. Its 110 km/h manufacturer-quoted road speed drops to roughly 50 km/h off-road, and its approximately 15,000 kg combat weight is stated without payload attached. Armor is rated to STANAG 4569 Level 3 against kinetic energy and artillery threats, with weapon options up to a 30mm cannon and a multi-canister missile launcher. Some press coverage has circulated conflicting figures for the platform, including a 6.5 m length, roughly 12 tonne weight and a 600 km range; these do not match Milrem's own published specifications and are not merged into the primary figures here.

Full specifications

Performance

Speed, range, altitude and engagement capability.

Performance specifications
Max speed Maximum level speed. For aircraft this is at optimal altitude; for ground vehicles, top road speed. Higher means faster response and better kinematic performance.	110 km/h Top 2% of UGVs

Protection

Armor, countermeasures and survivability.

Protection specifications
Armor Armor technology: composite, modular, ERA-fitted, uranium-ceramic. Exact compositions are classified.	STANAG 4569 Level 3 (kinetic energy and artillery)

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
Length Overall length including gun/probe where applicable.	6.8 m
Width Overall width, matters for rail/road transport of vehicles.	2.8 m
Height Overall height. Lower profile is harder to spot and hit for ground vehicles.	2.7 m
Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor.	15,000 kg
Crew Personnel required to operate. Fewer reduces exposure; autoloaders trade a loader for mechanical complexity.	0
Cargo payload Maximum cargo the transport can carry. Higher means more lift per sortie. On an unmanned ground vehicle, this is the maximum mission payload the platform carries, including a weapon station.	5,000 kg Top 2% of UGVs

Propulsion

Engine, power and fuel.

Propulsion specifications
Propulsion type Turbofan, turboshaft, diesel, gas turbine, solid-fuel rocket, ramjet…	All-wheel hybrid-electric drive

Autonomy & control

How the platform moves, how much it does without an operator, and how far the control link reaches.

Autonomy & control specifications
Locomotion How the platform moves: tracked, wheeled or legged. Tracks suit soft ground and heavy payloads, wheels favor road speed and range, legs handle stairs and rubble. Not a ranking, a trade-off.	Wheeled
