Overview

• Epirus and General Dynamics Land Systems unveiled Leonidas Autonomous Robotic, pairing the Leonidas high‑power microwave system with the TRX unmanned ground vehicle ahead of its AUSA show debut in Washington, DC.
• The companies say the mobile configuration answers the Army’s call for a maneuverable counter‑drone solution and could position Leonidas for consideration under the IFPC‑HPM acquisition path.
• Leonidas employs high‑power microwave pulses to disable multiple drones simultaneously, with software‑defined controls that let operators tune output, notch protected frequencies, and update performance in the field.
• The TRX platform provides hybrid‑electric tracked mobility with autonomous and remote operation features, including all‑terrain design, 360‑degree sensing, a reported range of more than 300 miles, and a top speed of about 45 mph.
• General Dynamics Land Systems is also developing a wheeled variant, while separate Pentagon contract notices list unrelated awards to BAE Systems and QinetiQ North America that reflect ongoing defense electronics spending.
