'''THeMIS''' (Tracked Hybrid Modular Infantry System), [[unmanned ground vehicle]] (UGV), is a ground-based [[armed drone]] vehicle designed largely for military applications, and is built by [[Milrem Robotics]] in Estonia. The vehicle is intended to provide support for dismounted troops by serving as a transport platform, remote weapon station, IED detection and disposal unit etc. The vehicle’s open architecture gives it multi-missions capability. The main purpose of the THeMIS Transport is to support onbase logistics and provide last mile resupply for fighting units on the front line. It supports infantry units by reducing their physical and cognitive load, increasing stand-off distance, force protection and survivability. THeMIS Combat UGVs provide direct fire support for manoeuvre forces acting as a force multiplier. With an integrated self-stabilizing remote-controlled weapon system, they provide high precision over wide areas, day and night, increasing stand-off distance, force protection and survivability. Combat UGVs can be equipped with light or heavy machine guns, 40 mm grenade launchers, 30mm autocannons and Anti-Tank Missile Systems. THeMIS ISR UGVs have advanced multi-sensor intelligence gathering capabilities. Their main purpose is to increase situational awareness, provide improved intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance over wide areas and battle damage assessment capability. The system can effectively enhance the work of dismounted infantry units, border guard and law enforcement agencies to collect and process raw information and decrease the reaction time for commanders. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.popsci.com/estonian-tankette-is-modular-body-for-war-robots|title=This Estonian Tankette Is A Modular Body For War Robots|website=Popular Science|language=en|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.defence24.com/live-fire-test-estonian-combat-robot|title=Live Fire Test – Estonian Combat Robot - Defence24.com|website=www.defence24.com|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.popsci.com/estonian-tankette-is-modular-body-for-war-robots|title=This Estonian Tankette Is A Modular Body For War Robots|website=Popular Science|language=en|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref> THeMIS is capable of firing conventional [[machine gun]] ammunition or [[missile]] rounds<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.janes.com/article/86733/idex-2019-milrem-robotics-unveils-missile-armed-themis-ugv|title=IDEX 2019: Milrem Robotics unveils missile-armed THeMIS UGV | Jane's 360|website=www.janes.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.sadefensejournal.com/wp/?p=4614|title=Weaponized Multi-Utility Unmanned Ground Vehicles|last=admin|website=Small Arms Defense Journal|language=en-US|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.army-technology.com/projects/themis-hybrid-unmanned-ground-vehicle/|title=THeMIS Hybrid Unmanned Ground Vehicle|website=Army Technology|language=en-GB|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref> |

THeMIS (Tracked Hybrid Modular Infantry System), unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), is a ground-based armed drone vehicle designed largely for military applications, and is built by Milrem Robotics in Estonia. The vehicle is intended to provide support for dismounted troops by serving as a transport platform, remote weapon station, IED detection and disposal unit etc. The vehicle’s open architecture gives it multi-missions capability. The main purpose of the THeMIS Transport is to support onbase logistics and provide last mile resupply for fighting units on the front line. It supports infantry units by reducing their physical and cognitive load, increasing stand-off distance, force protection and survivability. THeMIS Combat UGVs provide direct fire support for manoeuvre forces acting as a force multiplier. With an integrated self-stabilizing remote-controlled weapon system, they provide high precision over wide areas, day and night, increasing stand-off distance, force protection and survivability. Combat UGVs can be equipped with light or heavy machine guns, 40 mm grenade launchers, 30mm autocannons and Anti-Tank Missile Systems. THeMIS ISR UGVs have advanced multi-sensor intelligence gathering capabilities. Their main purpose is to increase situational awareness, provide improved intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance over wide areas and battle damage assessment capability. The system can effectively enhance the work of dismounted infantry units, border guard and law enforcement agencies to collect and process raw information and decrease the reaction time for commanders.
