History
Milrem Robotics was established in 2013. Development on the first unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) began late 2014. The first UGV (THeMIS) was introduced at DSEI 2015 in London. An upgraded THeMIS was introduced at the 2019 Defence and Security Equipment International conference.[2]
In 2019 the Estonian Defence Forces deployed the THeMIS UGV to a combat zone, Mali, for the first time as part of a French led counter-terrorism Operation Barkhane.[3][4]
In December 2023, after testing the system through Ukraine's Brave1 innovation system, Milrem signed an agreement with the Ukrainian Defense Industry to start development and production of robotic defense systems.[5]
