CENTURIO-X30

KNDS (the Franco-German military land-systems group comprising Nexter and KMW) unveiled the CENTURIO-X30 in February 2025, an unmanned ground combat vehicle equipped with a 30 mm ARX 30 cannon for heavy fire support to dismounted units. It features autonomous obstacle avoidance, real-time battlefield analysis, and supports leader-follower mode for manned-unmanned teaming. KNDS has sold more than 1,000 UGVs across its broader robotic platform range to 40 countries.

Yes. CENTURIO-X30 is independently verified in real-world operation on the DEPLOY registry, confirmed at named deployment sites with primary sources: not a concept, render, or demo-only.

CENTURIO-X30 is made by KNDS, based in Paris, France.

4 verified deployments of CENTURIO-X30 are on the DEPLOY registry, including at Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (IDEX 2025), Paris, Abu Dhabi, UAE.

CENTURIO-X30 is at research stage and is not yet available for sale.

On the DEPLOY registry, comparable defense_ugv robots to CENTURIO-X30 include THeMIS, TALON, ROOK, MTGR.

CENTURIO-X30 and THeMIS (Milrem Robotics · 22 deployments) are both defense_ugv robots on the DEPLOY registry. CENTURIO-X30 has 4 verified deployments on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.

On DEPLOY's intelligence score, which blends verified deployments, safety, adoption, media, and IP signals, CENTURIO-X30 ranks in roughly the top 72% of defense_ugv models tracked by the registry.

CENTURIO-X30 is at the research stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Research stage means active development without commercial deployments on file.

CENTURIO-X30 has no incidents on record in the DEPLOY registry. This does not constitute a safety guarantee; it reflects the incidents DEPLOY has tracked and verified to date.
