According to the report, L3Harris has equipped its T7 unmanned ground vehicle with cutting-edge electronic warfare (EW) capabilities, enabling it to disrupt enemy communications, radar systems, and other electronic assets on the battlefield.
The report stated that the upgraded robot was recently demonstrated at Vanguard 2024, where it successfully detected and neutralized small drones.
According to L3Harris Robotics Chief Engineer Dr. Paul Bosscher, the integration allows the T7 to sense and disrupt signals several kilometers ahead of military units, keeping soldiers out of harm’s way. The EW system can be remotely activated or deactivated, allowing the robot to shut down its own signals and reposition quickly without being detected.
The report also said that in addition to its EW missions, the enhanced T7 can recover downed friendly drones or deploy small unmanned aerial systems using its robotic arm.
The report added that the demonstration builds on lessons learned from Ukraine, emphasizing the need to enhance EW and stand-off capabilities to protect military personnel from drone and guided artillery attacks.
Additionally, L3Harris claims that the upgraded T7 is a strong choice for such scenarios, as it features aerospace-grade shielding to guard against electromagnetic interference. It added that this capability also ensures the robot can transmit, locate, and disrupt enemy signals without being affected by its own, as the T7 has extremely low radiated emissions.
