The activity was disclosed by the Dowództwo Generalne Rodzajów Sił Zbrojnych on its official page on platform X. In addition to Army troops, the exercises also included the participation of the police and the Wielkopolska Search and Rescue Group, reinforcing the interagency nature of the training.
The published images show the use of a reconnaissance quadcopter, the heavy ground robotic system PIAP HUNTeR NRK, and the PIAP MULES evacuation platform.
These assets were used in simulated scenarios of reconnaissance, support for engineering operations, and evacuation, reflecting contemporary demands of increasingly technologized battlefields.
The Polish Army had already tested the PIAP HUNTeR in 2023, at the time in a configuration equipped with the REX ZMU-03 combat module armed with a 12.7 mm machine gun.
The system is a wheeled robotic combat vehicle developed within the framework of the Łukasiewicz Research Network, which brings together institutions such as AREX, WB Group, and the Institute of Automation and Industrial Measurement.
From a technical standpoint, the vehicle is equipped with a 110 kW generator responsible for powering motors and sensors.
Remote operation is enabled by a set of sensors and nine HD cameras, with navigation assisted by GPS.
In addition to conventional optical systems, the equipment also features thermal sensors to enhance situational awareness under different operational conditions.
