Stock VisionWave Holdings (Nasdaq: $VWAV) Unveils the Varan UGV — Leading the Ground Autonomy
Revolution; @VWAVInc
Varan UGV, a next-generation, highly autonomous and modular ground platform engineered from the ground up with the goal to transform the modern battlefield
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., November
10, 2025 —( Investorideas.com Newswire) Breaking Defense stock news- VisionWave
Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: VWAV) today announced the upcoming field testing of its
Varan UGV, a next-generation, highly autonomous and modular ground platform
engineered from the ground up with the goal to transform the modern
battlefield. Testing is scheduled to begin in December 2025 in Europe with a
major defense industry partner, pursuant to all required regulatory approvals.
The Varan represents a fundamental shift in defence
innovation - a response to the new reality where a small, inexpensive drone can
neutralize a heavily armoured vehicle. As the balance of power shifts from
traditional armour to autonomous intelligence, the Varan stands at the
forefront of what many are calling the next drone revolution - only this time,
on the ground.
The platform’s mission-adaptable modularity allows
rapid reconfiguration with a variety of payloads, including:
·
Counter-UAS
modules for air-threat interception and perimeter defence
·
Active
Protection Systems (APS) for vehicle survivability
·
Remote Weapon
Systems (RWS) for tactical engagement
·
Troop and supply
transport configurations
·
CASEVAC modules
for casualty evacuation and battlefield medical support.
Available in electric and hybrid variants, the
Varan is optimized for stealth, endurance, and rapid deployment—delivering
autonomy, reduced logistical footprint and cost efficiency compared with any
comparable system in development today.
Developed by VisionWave’s UK engineering team under
the leadership of Jez Williman, Head of Ground Vehicle Development, the Varan
was designed and built in Britain using scalable, interoperable architecture to
support mass production and multi-domain integration.
“The Varan represents a new generation of
battlefield intelligence,” said Noam Kenig, Chief Executive Officer of
VisionWave. “It’s more than a vehicle - it’s a living system of automation and
adaptability. As one of the participants in early autonomous vehicle research
projects that contributed to the broader ecosystem later showcased in the DARPA
Grand Challenge - the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
competition that pioneered modern self-driving systems - it feels like a
full-circle moment to see how far autonomous mobility has advanced. As UGVs
become the next great evolution of unmanned warfare, Varan stands ready to lead
that revolution.”
The Varan’s modular design supports multiple
payloads — from counter-UAS defense to remote weapon systems — enabling rapid
mission adaptation.
Jez Williman, Head of Ground Vehicle Development,
added: “We designed the Varan entirely from the ground up as a true autonomous
vehicle - every system, actuator, and algorithm developed in-house to achieve
extreme terrain capability, reliability, and serviceability.
The result is a compact, interoperable platform
with anticipated multi-hit lightweight armour pending formal ballistic
certification, simplified maintenance, and exceptional scalability across
mission types. Whether deployed as a single unit or within a swarm, the Varan
adapts instantly - from reconnaissance to resupply to defence. This is autonomy
you can trust, maintain, and multiply.”
The upcoming European field trials will demonstrate
the Varan’s swarm coordination, modular payload integration, and all-terrain
endurance, positioning VisionWave as a global leader in autonomous multi-domain
defence innovation.
Varan is the first in a family of next-generation
ground autonomy systems currently in development at VisionWave.
