eUGS project kick-off

On 4 February 2026, we officially kicked off the eUGS project “Collaborative Combat Engineering Unmanned Ground Systems” project, a research and technology initiative of the European Defency Agency. The project focuses on advancing European combat engineering capabilities, and we are proud of Demcon’s role as project leader.

Within eUGS, we are developing advanced hardware and software to enable the effective control and management of multiple unmanned ground systems for combat engineering missions. These include obstacle breaching and clearance, fortification, earthmoving works and obstacle launching. By adapting mature technologies to demanding military requirements, eUGS enhances interoperability, operational effectiveness and force protection, while reducing the operator’s workload in complex, high-risk environments.

The consortium brings together European industry and academic partners with expertise in unmanned ground systems and combat engineering from the Netherlands, Belgium, Croatia, Norway and Poland. Partners include: the Royal Military Academy (Belgium), DOK-ING, Demcon, AgXeed, AutoAgri, Forsvarets Forskningsinstitutt (FFI), CHSnor AS, Łukasiewicz-PIAP, the Military University of Technology in Warsaw, and WITI.


This kick-off marks a concrete step toward scalable, interoperable and collaborative unmanned combat engineering systems that are fully aligned with EU capability priorities and the evolving operational realities of land forces. We look forward to driving this innovation forward together with our partners.
