Rheinmetall’s Rapid Obscuring System (“ROSY”) deploys from the MILREM Robotics’ THeMIS Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) demonstrating that smoke protection is a critical capability for unmanned platforms to ensure the successful execution of the UGV’s tactical mission:
• Increasing the survivability of the UGV system and equipment
• Tactical screening in forward deployed positions
• Protection of the dismounted troops and during UGV medical evacuation operations (MedEvac)
The ROSY smoke protection system helps to protect the crew and passengers of military and civilian vehicles from surprise attacks and ambushes e.g. during reconnaissance patrols or while travelling in convoy. Unlike conventional smoke and obscurant systems, ROSY produces within one second an instantaneous, large-area, multispectral interruption of the line of sight that shields even moving vehicles with a dynamic, long-lasting smoke screen.
ROSY’s multi-mission capability assures 360° protection from multiple attackers, including stream and wave attacks. Moreover, thanks to effective screening in the visual and infrared spectrums, including integrated IR jamming and decoying effects, ROSY effectively counters conventional weapons, weapons with optical devices and laser distance measurement.
