Stronghold AI and Rovertech sign partnership on robotic survivability

Eurosatory 2026.

Stronghold AI and Rovertech sign a memorandum of cooperation to increase the survivability of unmanned ground systems against aerial and FPV threats, including fibre-attached and those with no RF signature.

Stronghold AI and Rovertech (Rovertech, LLC) have signed a partnership to increase the survivability of unmanned ground systems against the threats now defining the battlefield: aerial and FPV drones, including fibre-attached and those with no RF signature.

Stronghold AI delivers the AURA AR-1, a complete last-layer active protection system built on our threat-detection platform. The AR-1 is multimodal by design, fusing acoustic and visual sensing; other AURA models add RF detection.

AURA AR-1

Last-layer threat detection for vehicles, UGVs and protected positions.

AURA is a product family. Depending on configuration, its detection envelope spans 50 to 250 metres, and reaches kilometres with enhanced sensors. AURA is configured to the range each mission demands.

Rovertech bring the TARANTULA programme. Together, the system sees the threat and responds to it.

AURA AR-1 listens and sees in noisy, moving environments. It uses edge AI to detect, classify and alert on close-range threats including RF-silent threats such as fibre-linked FPVs.

The agreement marks the transition from collaboration to shared operational capability. AURA AR-1 is already deployed with operational units in Ukraine as part of a phased operational rollout, and is on show at Eurosatory this week, ready for integration on vehicles, ground robots and protected positions.
