The KMC-U, known for its mobility with 360-degree rotation and ability to launch IIR and laser-guided missiles with high precision, can now be controlled from a single centre on the battlefield. The platform can carry up to 4 UMTAS/LUMTAS missiles or 8 Cirit missiles, or a combination of 2 UMTAS/LUMTAS and 4 Cirit.

MUM-T Integration

With the AGMOSS structure, Roketsan showcased the integration of manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) operations, pairing the KAPLAN STA vehicle with unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). The system allows control of up to four armed UGVs from a single KMC-U platform, extending range and responsiveness on the battlefield.

Among the demonstrations presented:

  • 4×4 UGV with KMC-U turret and reconnaissance drone.
  • PALEM UGV with KARAOK anti-tank missile and 12.7 mm machine gun.
  • Two PUSU UGVs equipped with the same turret as the PALEM.

Components and configurations

The AGMOSS concept envisions multiple modular configurations, including:

  • Modular KMC-U UGV (with air defence turret or tactical missiles).
  • PUSU UGV with L-OMTAS capability.
  • PALEM UGV with combined ATGM and machine gun turret.
