Eurosatory 2026: Pearson Engineering to send AI mine detecting systems into Ukraine
Pearson Engineering’s Threat-Sense system is designed to use imaging from drones to geolocate scattered mines and support uncrewed systems in defeating the threats.
Denel Vehicle Systems has developed a demonstrator of a 28t (GVM; empty 12t) 6x6 truck, using its RG-31 series MRAP vehicles as the basis.
The truck is a modular design able to accommodate a range of superstructures or a hook lift system for logistic use. It is powered by a 269 kW diesel driving through an Allison automatic gearbox and a DVS two-speed transfer case.
The rigid axles have differential locks, parabolic leaf springs with double-acting hydraulic shock-absorbers, and mount 16.00 R20 tyres on 10.0x20 split rims. The steering is hydraulically assisted.
The truck is 10m long by 2.6m wide
