The Mission

Europe’s shifting geopolitical landscape is driving a renewed focus on defence modernization and strategic autonomy.

As European nations bolster their capabilities, demand for advanced, AI-driven autonomous systems is rising.
Land operations remain vastly under-automated – despite accounting for 80% of all military activities, 70% of material usage, and 40% of total procurement. ARX Robotics is bridging this gap by digitising and autonomizing European forces – equipping them with advanced capabilities through high-performance UGVs, modernised legacy systems, and seamless AI-driven connectivity across land, air, and sea domains.

Founded by Marc Wietfeld (Co-Founder and CEO), Maximilian Wied (Co-Founder and CFO), and Stefan Roebel (Co-Founder and COO), all former officers in the German Bundeswehr, the Munich-based company seeks to strengthen European resilience. Its unique offering in mobile robotics, including the world’s first independent AI-powered operating system for legacy vehicles, ARX Mithra OS, helps militaries increase their operational efficiency and enhance situational awareness as they modernize their fleets.

Since its founding in 2022, ARX Robotics has become the leading UGV supplier to key European markets, including Germany, Ukraine and the UK, with six European military forces currently deploying them.

ARX also supplied the Ukrainian Military with the largest Western-developed fleet of UGVs and was recently contracted by the European Defence Agency (EDA) to participate in the first EU-wide defence innovation initiative. With its technology, ARX Robotics has the potential to retrofit over 50,000 NATO vehicles. With a fully European supply chain, ARX ensures that mission-critical technology stays under European control, aligned with the continent’s sovereignty and resilience goals.
