HDT Global’s Hunter WOLF™, a military unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), has been selected by the U.S. Army for the Small Multipurpose Equipment Transport (S-MET) Increment II program.
HDT is one of two proposed solutions selected through the National Advanced Mobility Consortium’s (NAMC) Other Transaction Agreement. The Hunter WOLF will be delivered to the U.S. Army for government test and evaluation.
The Hunter WOLF is a 6×6 wheeled UGV with enhanced transportability and mobility. Characterized by its stealth, ruggedness, ease of operation and maintenance, the Hunter WOLF boasts a robust steel frame, electric motors, and a hybrid electric drive. This delivers power, durability, stealth, efficient power export, and superior mobility.
The UGV meets the demands of the most challenging mission profiles, and is engineered to perform consistently in extreme terrain, weather, and climates.
The Hunter WOLF’s performance capabilities reportedly align with the Army’s operational needs, and with a proven track record and a strong competitive position, HDT is well prepared to proceed in the next phase of the competition. The current contract is valued at $11.55M.
