QinetiQ and RENK Group AG, a leading supplier of military and civilian propulsion solutions have signed a strategic partnership agreement that will see the two companies jointly develop future mobility concepts for military land platforms in the weight class of 5 to 60 tons. The partnership will focus on advanced hybridisation concepts and uncrewed ground vehicles (UGVs).
The cooperation with QinetiQ is a decisive step for us to further expand our technology leadership and to increase future growth potential. We are thus well positioned to meet the growing demands of our customers in the area of armored mobility, said Susanne Wiegand, CEO of RENK Group AG.
The electrification and hybridization of existing and future land platforms offer great opportunities for growth. In particular, the new market for UGVs with their diverse tactical applications is dynamic and high-growth. This is especially true for uncrewed, tracked vehicles up to 20 tons, said Dr. Alexander Sagel, COO of RENK Group AG.
Steve Wadey, Group Chief Executive Officer, QinetiQ said: As we continue to develop our capabilities in advanced mobility technology we are delighted to partner with RENK. By leveraging our leading edge technology alongside RENK’s global expertise in the military land market we will establish a powerful combination to address our customers’ future requirements.
As part of the agreement both partners will leverage technological core competencies and strengths: RENK will contribute its expertise in the area of gear technologies and complete system solutions, including electric drives and power electronics. QinetiQ will contribute its expertise in advanced autonomy and manoeuvrability. The joint activities will be coordinated on the basis of a clearly defined research and development roadmap.
