"With the help of the DELTA combat system, the Ukrainian military coordinated the work of more than 50 unmanned vehicles of various types - underwater, sea, land and air," the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine said in a statement.
The ministry reports that during the exercise, the Ukrainian DELTA system connected to and received data on the location of the German "robotic dog" Robotics-L from Rheinmetall. This robot can accompany soldiers in difficult terrain, perform various tasks and help protect them from mine threats.
The exercise took place near the Troy Peninsula in Portugal from 9 to 27 September. Among the objectives of REPMUS 24 are the integration of unmanned platforms, command and control (C2) systems and cross-domain interoperability, as well as achieving interoperability with NATO partner countries' command and control systems.
