Under the terms of this landmark agreement, ADTI will manufacture hundreds of platforms and controllers for Roboteam’s cutting-edge Micro Tactical Ground Robot (MTGR), a lightweight, highly maneuverable, all-terrain robot designed to aid military, law enforcement and public safety units in various combat situations.
To ensure the MTGRs integrate seamlessly with the U.S. Marine Corps’ operations, ADTI will also provide spare parts and ongoing operational support. The manufacturing process will take place in ADTI’s facility in Windsor Mill, Maryland, ensuring strict quality control, timely delivery, and contributing to job creation and economic growth in the U.S. defense industry.
“We’re fully committed to advancing Roboteam’s mission to provide high-performance tactical robots that support warfighters and keep them safe,” said Tamir Ziv, CEO of ADTI. “Reliable solutions like the MTGR can be the difference between mission success and failure, which is why we’re grateful for our partnership with this organization. These solutions are critical to ensuring troops stay protected in times of conflict.”
The MTGR has been used successfully in numerous applications, including Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), special operations, and complex tactical maneuvers. Its stair-climbing capabilities and self-righting mechanisms allow it to successfully perform indoor and outdoor operations, a pivotal feature for reconnaissance, surveillance and target acquisition.
Additional features of the MTGR include:
- Man carried tactical platform with 4 DOF Manipulator and a highly intuitive interface.
- 360-degree video coverage day & night vision for uninterrupted mission control.
- Essential tool for enhancing the capabilities of any military, law enforcement or public safety unit.
- Advanced all-terrain maneuverability, including stair climbing and self-righting capabilities.
“By working with ADTI, we’re able to deliver the full force of the MTGR’s capabilities to the U.S. Marine Corps,” said Matan Shirvi, CEO of Roboteam. “This agreement reaffirms the MTGR's position as a leading solution in tactical ground robotics and an ideal tool for the U.S. Marine Corps’ diverse and challenging missions. We look forward to expanding our partnership with ADTI to fortify the U.S. Marine Corps’ operational capabilities and field safety.”
ADTI will be at the AUSA 2024 Annual Meeting & Exposition in booth #1342 showcasing cutting-edge defense solutions like the MTGR.
