US Navy foresees an uncrewed future for its surface and underwater fleet
The service has been conducting various procurement and development efforts to integrate unmanned surface and underwater vehicles into its inventory.
Servosila has launched a range of robotic arm manipulators - Servosila Robotic Arms - aimed at the mobile robotics market, the company announced on 19 September.
The robotic arms are attachable payload modules for robotic platforms such as mobile service robots. They are powered through an on-board power supply system on the host robotic platform.
The arms can be used indoors and outdoors and are dust-proof, water-tight and functional in snow, rain as well as cold or hot weather. They lack exposed cables that can be torn off or damaged when the unmanned platform moves through difficult terrain. The arms can be submersed in water without impacting their performance.
Servosila Robotic Arms can be folded into a compact form when not in use. The folded form can be placed on the side of a torso or on the top of a robotic chassis. Their servo drive internal structure and harmonic gears have been designed for outdoor mobile robotics applications.

Tekever has manufactured the AR3, AR4 and AR5 UAS with all systems sharing common electronics and software architecture, which has enabled the reuse of ground segment elements within the new ARX UAS.
As the dynamics of aerial combat rapidly evolve, Chinese scientists have engineered a sophisticated air separation drone model that can fragment into up to six drones, each capable of executing distinct battlefield roles and challenging the efficacy of current anti-drone defences such as the UK’s Dragonfire laser system.
Advancements in air defence technologies have begun to reshape aerial combat dynamics in the Middle East, as illustrated by recent events involving the Israeli Air Force and Hezbollah.
Both sides of the Russia-Ukraine war have been using UAS for effective low-cost attacks, as well as impactful web and social media footage. Thousands more have now been committed to Ukrainian forces.
The US Army has intentions to develop light, medium and heavy variants of the Robotic Combat Vehicle (RCV) as part of the branche’s Next Generation Combat Vehicle family.
