Summary created with AI assistance · Source: defence-blog.com
  • Epirus introduced the Leonidas Autonomous Robotic, integrating a high-power microwave platform with a 10-ton tracked unmanned vehicle from GDLS.

  • The directed-energy system delivers concentrated microwave pulses to disable hostile electronics and simultaneously neutralize multiple drones in swarms.

  • Software control enables tuning of power and frequency, setting safe zones, and remote updates without vehicle return to base.

  • This mobile solution bridges the gap between fixed-site defenses and short-range kinetic interceptors for enhanced battlefield flexibility.
    • An example of a new development model for defense innovation.
    — Epirus frames the project as an example of a new development model for defense innovation, arguing that teaming established contractors with younger technology firms speeds the fielding of capabilities suited to a shifting battlefield.
