U.S. Army's field tests of Hanwha Defense's Arion-SMET

Brig. Gen. Mark Holler (C), deputy operations commander of the U.S. Eighth Army, looks at images transmitted by a Hanwha Defense-made state-of-the-art unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) during its performance test at U.S. Camp Humphreys in Pyeongtaek, 65 kilometers south of Seoul, on Nov. 29, 2022. Earlier, the South Korean-made multipurpose vehicle, dubbed Arion-SMET, had been selected as one of the equipment for the Foreign Comparative Testing (FCT) operated by the Office of the Secretary of Defense under the U.S. Department of Defense. The FCT aims to test items and technologies of U.S. foreign allies that have a high Technology Readiness Level for potential cooperation with the U.S. military's future modernization programs.
