Rheinmetall tests maritime unmanned systems at REPMUS 2026
Rheinmetall is participating in the REPMUS 2026 (Robotic Experimentation and Prototyping with Maritime Unmanned Systems) exercise held in Portugal from August 31 to September 25, 2026. The multinational trial focuses on testing modular and interconnected unmanned systems designed for maritime operations and the protection of critical port infrastructure.
A central component of the demonstration is a containerized, mobile command and control center intended to support the German Navy in operational port security. The technology utilizes an open integration architecture, specifically the Rheinmetall Battlesuite powered by Tactical Core Middleware, to network sensors and platforms from various manufacturers into a unified operational picture.
