This underscores KNDS’s position as Europe’s only pure land systems champion, providing solutions to the needs of fully integrated and interoperable mission and operational solutions.
In this context, we operate at the system architecture level as the Design Authority and Lead Integrator, providing complete end-to-end mission solutions. This approach enables KNDS to cover the full spectrum from our high-performance systems and platforms to networked mission solutions, while remaining fully accountable to the customer as the prime contractor.
Mission Solutions
In the field of mission solutions, KNDS offers a wide range of products, from a Fire Support Command and Control System for artillery battalions to solutions for coordinated, cross-platform networked mission solutions. Here, mission solution means providing continuous operational capability, covering both all tactical and all logistical aspects. KNDS connects manned platforms, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), sensors, and effectors, and also supports our customers in the creation and revision of the relevant CONOPS (Concept of Operations). This enables early and continuous involvement of KNDS throughout the entire lifecycle, including upgrades, digital services, and maintenance.
Main Battle Tanks
We hold the leading position in European main battle tank projects. KNDS impressively demonstrates its comprehensive expertise in this segment—from firepower, protection, counter-drone capabilities, mobility, and digitalization—and showcases the LEOPARD 2 and Leclerc XLR in their latest variants, the Leclerc XLR, and the LEOPARD 2 A-RC 3.0 technology demonstrator system.
At Eurosatory 2026, KNDS will unveil a previously unseen next-generation main battle tank concept and, as part of the KNDS overall portfolio, illustrate the future European land combat capabilities.
Indirect Fire
As the market leader in the artillery segment, we offer the most comprehensive range of battle-proven artillery systems and ammunition – from highly mobile wheeled solutions to self-propelled howitzers, including the associated cross-platform fire-control solutions. KNDS is presenting a total of seven systems – including a world premiere.
Infantry Fighting Vehicles / Armored Carriers
KNDS offers state-of-the-art IFV/APC capabilities and displays seven systems that are highly adaptable to customers’ needs.
Robotics
KNDS Robotics’ expertise spans an exceptionally broad range of use cases, from the NERVA micro-robot to armed platforms such as the CENTURIO UGV and the BOXER UAV, featuring an integrated command-and-control system for unmanned systems, including loitering munitions and C-UAV drones.
The THeMIS UGV, equipped with KNDS’s modular payload system, represents a new class of unmanned capability designed for integration into digital, mission-oriented operations.
Counter UAV
We respond to current threats through a complete and innovative solutions C-UAS solutions on our platforms that combines detection with neutralization and offers units an integrated “detect-to-effect” process. KNDS also relies on modular options so that anti-UAV capability can be adapted to requirements and integrated on different platforms in a multi-layer approach.
This also includes the development of airburst ammunition and projectiles equipped with proximity fuzes specifically designed for countering UAVs.
Ammunition / Turrets & Cannons
KNDS showcases a wide range of NATO-caliber ammunition, from 20 to 155mm. From anti-drone munitions to tank rounds, through a broad range of artillery ammunition and sovereign loitering munitions with the MATARIS family—further expanded at Eurosatory 2026 with the unveiling of a new system—KNDS covers a wide array of innovative capabilities.
Service & Support
Logistics is today more than ever an integral component of modern mission solutions. With the MULTIBOX system solution, we present a mobile maintenance and logistics system that integrates the supply chain across all logistical levels and brings services exactly where they are needed. By integrating UAVs and UGVs, we significantly reduce transport times and deliver with precision, even on the demanding “last mile.”
Together with our additive manufacturing partners, we produce spare parts quickly and on demand, even in very small quantities or for short-notice requirements. Our customers benefit from highly mobile logistics, short response times, and consistently high system availability. KNDS presents DiagLens – a portable, intelligent assistance solution designed to support maintainers directly during maintenance operations. It combines augmented reality, voice interaction and embedded intelligence to provide immediate access to the right information, at the right time, without interrupting the task.
