UGV – Unmanned Ground Vehicle

Driving ground autonomy with innovation, adaptability and mission resilience

We deliver autonomous ground solutions for tactical advantage, mission continuity, and operational adaptability

Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) are reshaping the future of defence, providing advanced mobility, operational safety, and mission versatility in complex and contested environments. These platforms reduce risks to personnel while increasing mission reach and real-time responsiveness across surveillance, logistics, and combat scenarios. The demand for sovereign, interoperable and scalable UGV solutions is growing in Europe, driven by the need for autonomous systems that operate across land domains in joint missions with aerial and manned assets.

At Sener, in collaboration with SCR, we develop advanced UGV engineering platforms that integrate AI, secure communications and modular mission payloads. These solutions support tactical superiority in modern theatres of operation — from ISR and convoy support to electronic warfare and CBRN reconnaissance.

Why choose us

Our commitment to technological sovereignty ensures every solution we deliver is designed for secure exportability, mission adaptability, and long-term operational support. With trusted partnerships and certified engineering processes, Sener is positioned as a key player in the evolution of ground autonomy for defence.

Our solutions enable tactical advantage across all land-based operations

Sener’s UGV systems are adaptable to multiple roles — from remote carriers in collaborative swarm operations to logistics platforms and surveillance nodes. We integrate complete autonomy stacks, including AI-based navigation, advanced RF payloads and C2 interfaces, allowing seamless operation in structured and unstructured terrain.

How we work

Our UGV engineering approach combines conceptual design, mechanical integration, embedded software, and autonomy algorithms within an agile, certified development process. We manage the entire system lifecycle — including hardware qualification, system-level validation, and integration with C2 infrastructures. Platforms are tested in-house and in mission-like field environments to ensure reliability and user adaptability.

We develop autonomous ground vehicles from concept to certified field deployment

Whether deployed independently or in manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) environments, our UGV platforms deliver operational flexibility, low detectability, and autonomous resilience — supporting commanders with reliable and interoperable assets that respond to high-intensity mission requirements.

We deliver scalable, modular UGVs tailored to mission-specific needs

Sener brings decades of expertise in critical defence technologies, now applied to unmanned ground vehicles through full-lifecycle design, integration, and qualification. Our systems are ITAR-free, field-proven and aligned with European strategic programmes including FCAS/NGWS and the national ALANO UGV platform developed with EINSA.
