The new robotic system from the German concern Rheinmetall received the designation "mission Master" (Mission Master). The idea behind its creation is to create a family of robotic machines suitable for performing a whole set of tasks. This approach provides a significant advantage for both combat training and combat operations. After the transport version for transporting cargo or wounded and the version for fire support, Rheinmetall introduced the armed scout-sentinel to an international audience. The modular design of the all-terrain and floating chassis (8x8) is integrated with modern intelligence sensors and a remote-controlled weapons station.

Rheinmetall's Master of missions robotic system


To detect potential threats, the payload includes long-range electro-optical and infrared sensors, a surveillance radar, a 360-degree all-round camera, a laser rangefinder, and a laser target marker. When the platform is in a hidden position, the sensors can be raised to a height of up to 3.5 m on the mast to improve visibility. The mast can be tilted for easy and safe transport. In addition, the complex is suitable for transportation by CH-53 or CH-47 helicopters.

If necessary, the sensors can be raised to a height of up to 3.5 m


The mission master was developed as an Autonomous tool for performing dangerous tasks as part of a reconnaissance patrol. It can transmit a picture of the situation in real time without endangering personnel. Its core is a self-contained set of PATH (A-kit) from Rheinmetall. The PATH kit offers extensive remote control capabilities for the "mission Master". At the operator's choice, a tablet computer, smart watch, or one-hand control device can be used for control. All of these devices provide full access to PATH features such as follow me, convoy, or offline navigation. Each control mode includes several levels of protection that ensure the safe operation of the entire complex at any time. The decision to use weapons is strictly up to the individual:  the "man in the loop" principle.

Rheinmetall developed the concept of a "wolf pack" to manage the Master of missions group of vehicles. Through the radio network, it allows the operator to control several robotic complexes simultaneously. The operator can devote himself to higher-level tasks, while the machines perform operational tasks autonomously. These tasks include monitoring premises, intelligence, and transmitting data about targets. At the same time, to properly assess the current situation, robots use artificial intelligence and can communicate with each other.

The modular concept of the "mission Wizard" allows you to install other types of equipment (payload) on the chassis, as well as control through other communication channels. Currently, ground-based robots for solving combat tasks are being tested in many countries. Various versions of the "mission Master" are undergoing military trials in many NATO countries.
