Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV)
Discover cutting-edge solutions from leading global suppliers
Crow Industries has reached the one-year milestone for its Fenris unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), the first American-made dual-use Group 2 UGV.
Fenris is designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce risk for United States and Allied military organizations by enabling command-and-control of multi-vehicle operations for critical battlefield tasks and accelerating decision-making.
Fenris is engineered as a force-multiplying Group 2 UGV to deliver tactical advantage while safeguarding personnel. It is payload-agnostic up to 500-lbs for various mission scenarios, including human-machine integrated formations, intelligence gathering, remote sUAS deployment, and one-way kinetic missions, utilizing both teleoperated and autonomous control.
Within eight months of its debut, Crow Industries secured a military sale with the U.S. Department of Defense. The company is continuing to see global interest in the system from defense organizations, including those within NATO, Ukraine, Israel, and Australia. Fenris is the sole U.S. solution in the critical Group 2 UGV category and has received interest from over sixteen U.S. military organizations, including the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) and U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). The momentum has led to immediate Allied military demand for hundreds of units in recent weeks.
The company also collaborated with HavocAI to demonstrate Fenris’ ability to coordinate with teams of Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs), showcasing how land and maritime autonomous systems can operate together.
“Fenris has proven itself as the benchmark for American-made Group 2 UGVs by delivering breakthrough capabilities and operational readiness that support the U.S. military’s next generation of tactical battlefield operations,” said Dr. James Crowell, Founder and CEO of Crow Industries. He added that the milestone reflects “not only the strength of our technologies, but also the growing trust our defense and industrial partners place in purpose-built American robotic systems tailored for their most demanding missions.”
Crow Industries has expanded the UGV’s capabilities with three new configurations: Heavy Duty, Sub-Terranean, and Tactical. The company has successfully tested Fenris in multi-domain robotic teams operating in underground environments with front-line military groups. Sub-Terranean Fenris is specifically designed for confined and GPS-denied operations, aiming to provide defense and industrial teams with uninterrupted communication and situational awareness below ground.
The Heavy Duty Fenris is scheduled for public demonstration this Fall as Crow Industries has been selected as a Finalist in the U.S. Army’s xTechOverwatch competition.
