Overview

Perun is a four-wheel, all-electric reconnaissance-and-combat unmanned ground vehicle developed by Zakłady Mechaniczne Tarnów, a subsidiary of Poland's state Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa (PGZ) defense group, and shown publicly at MSPO in 2020 and 2022. It can be driven manually or follow a saved route plan, and carries a cargo payload of up to 900 kg with at least 10 hours of endurance and a 50 km/h top speed. The fixed control console reaches out to 5 km, while a mobile handheld console is limited to roughly 3 km. Its ZSMU A3C remote weapon station mounts a 7.62mm UKM-2000C or 12.7mm WKM-B machine gun, and the platform has been test-fired with the Pirat anti-tank guided missile. A sensor suite including a gunfire locator, weather station and CBRN detectors supports its reconnaissance role.

Pirat anti-tank guided missile

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.

50 km/h
Stronger than 65% of UGVs
Endurance

Time on station. Critical for UAVs and patrol platforms, higher means longer persistent coverage. On a ground robot, published continuous run time on a full charge or fuel tank.

10 h
Stronger than 73% of UGVs

Firepower

Armament, payload and guidance.

Firepower specifications
Main armament

Primary weapon: main gun, cannon or missile type.

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
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.

900 kg
Stronger than 40% of UGVs

Sensors & avionics

Radar, sensor suite and datalinks.

Sensors & avionics specifications
Sensors

IRST, EO/IR turrets, laser designators, sniper pods, thermal sights.

Gunfire locator, Weather station, CBRN detectors

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
Autonomy level

How much the platform does without an operator, as the manufacturer describes it. Vendors do not use a common standard, so this is a coarse editorial bucket, not a certified rating.

Semi-autonomous
Control range

Maximum published operator-to-vehicle control-link distance, normally line-of-sight radio. Higher keeps the operator further from the threat. This is NOT the vehicle's driving range.

5 km
Stronger than 80% of UGVs
