Overview
The Type-X was Milrem Robotics' original tracked heavy robotic combat vehicle, publicly rolled out in 2020-2021 before the company's product line was superseded by the newer HAVOC and VECTOR platforms; its own product page has since been retired, but it remains a real, publicly demonstrated system in its own right. Its 80 km/h manufacturer-stated road speed falls to roughly 50 km/h off-road, and armor is rated to STANAG 4569 Level 4 against kinetic energy threats and Level 1 against mines. The John Cockerill CPWS II turret can carry a 25mm M242 or 30mm 230LF autocannon, with a 50mm option available, plus a 7.62mm coaxial machine gun. The UK's Future Combat Group trialled the Type-X at the Armoured Trials and Development Unit (ATDU) in March 2023.
Full specifications
Performance
Speed, range, altitude and engagement capability.
| 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. | 80 km/h |
|---|---|
| Range Maximum distance: ferry range for aircraft, operational range for vehicles, maximum engagement distance for missiles. Higher means more standoff or persistence. | 600 km |
Firepower
Armament, payload and guidance.
| Main armament Primary weapon: main gun, cannon or missile type. | John Cockerill CPWS II turret with M242 25mm or 230LF 30mm autocannon (up to 50mm optional) |
|---|---|
| Secondary armament Additional weapons: coaxial MG, remote weapon station, gun pods. | 7.62mm coaxial |
Protection
Armor, countermeasures and survivability.
| Armor Armor technology: composite, modular, ERA-fitted, uranium-ceramic. Exact compositions are classified. | STANAG 4569 Level 4 (kinetic energy) / Level 1 (mine) |
|---|
Physical
Dimensions, weight and crew.
| Length Overall length including gun/probe where applicable. | 6 m |
|---|---|
| Width Overall width, matters for rail/road transport of vehicles. | 2.9 m |
| Height Overall height. Lower profile is harder to spot and hit for ground vehicles. | 2.2 m |
| Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor. | 12,000 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. | 4,100 kg |
Propulsion
Engine, power and fuel.
| Propulsion type Turbofan, turboshaft, diesel, gas turbine, solid-fuel rocket, ramjet… | Hybrid-electric with diesel generator |
|---|
Autonomy & control
How the platform moves, how much it does without an operator, and how far the control link reaches.
| 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. | Tracked |
