Field useUnmanned ground vehicles

MAX1

A heavy-duty tracked unmanned ground vehicle for high-risk environments. One mobility platform, ten documented payload configurations — the mission is defined by the payload, not the vehicle.

Why it matters

Operational advantages

  • 800 kg payload on a standard modular deck — ten documented configurations on one unchanged mobility base.
  • Tracked, heavy-duty mobility: 45° grades, 35 cm obstacles, stairs, trenches and water crossings.
  • Teleoperated with live video, thermal and night sensing and real-time telemetry, with GPS return-to-home and waypoint patrol.
  • Electric drive: two brushless motors, 17.8 kW peak, detachable Li-Ion battery.
  • IP66 sealed, with high-temperature and CBRN-sealed configurations (configuration-dependent).
  • Engineered and manufactured in Romania, with service and maintenance support across the country.

In defence service

One chassis, many support roles, off the critical path for people.

MAX1 brings a proven intervention platform to the field: a tracked base that carries casualty-evacuation, logistics, ISR and recovery payloads on one standard deck. A remote weapon-station configuration is in testing.

Casualty evacuation
The stretcher module lets a small team move a casualty out of a trench or exposed position without adding carriers.
Logistics and recovery
A cargo rack carries up to 800 kg across rugged terrain; the pull bar and winch tow vehicles — demonstrated on a military truck — and clear heavy obstacles.
Surveillance and reconnaissance
An elevated PTZ mast with day, thermal and night imaging streams live video to the operator's tablet.
Integration path
Secure tactical communications, C2 and mission-computer integration, followed by EMC, environmental and cyber qualification.

Questions

Good to know

Can we order MAX1?

Yes. MAX1 has completed its performance and reliability testing, and sales opened in July 2026 on an order basis. Contact us for commercial details, the technical brochure or a live demonstration.

How quickly does it change role?

Payload modules mount on a standard deck with a common mechanical and power interface, so MAX1 is reconfigured in minutes rather than rebuilt.

How is MAX1 controlled?

It is teleoperated from a rugged handheld controller, a rugged tablet or a smartphone app, all with live video and telemetry. GPS navigation adds autonomous return-to-home and waypoint patrol; an operator stays in the loop.

Where is it built and supported?

MAX1 is engineered and manufactured in Romania. Our service network covers maintenance and support across the country.

Which specifications depend on configuration?

Sustained operation above 500 °C, CBRN-sealed operation and the 5 km radio range depend on the configuration and are validated per configuration. The full technical file is shared with qualified customers.
