Quantum Systems and Tencore to co-produce 2,000 TerMit UGVs in Germany through new joint venture Quantum Tencore Industries

Quantum Tencore Industries (QTI) was selected for the delivery of 2,000 TerMIT unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) to the Ukrainian Armed Forces over the next 12 months. The joint venture QTI is the second German-Ukrainian joint venture between Quantum Systems and leading Ukrainian UGV manufacturer Tencore under the “Build with Ukraine” initiative and will manufacture the Ukrainian-designed systems in Germany.

Funded by the German Ministry of Defence, the programme will provide the first contract for QTI and enables the immediate ramp-up of manufacturing activities in Germany. Production will be carried out in cooperation with an established industrial partner, allowing rapid integration into existing manufacturing infrastructure while strengthening industrial capacity and supporting skilled employment in Germany.

The programme builds on Quantum Systems’ long-standing presence in Ukraine and follows the co-production model established through Quantum Frontline Industries under the “Build with Ukraine” initiative. It represents one of the largest known procurements of unmanned ground vehicles in Europe to date and reflects the growing operational importance of ground robotics in modern military operations.

Hendrik Kramer, Managing Director of Quantum Tencore Industries, said: “Over the past 12 months, UGVs have fundamentally changed battlefield operations in Ukraine, from logistics and casualty evacuation to frontline combat missions. By combining battle-proven Ukrainian ground systems with German industrial scale, QTI is contributing to build strategic capacity in one of the most important emerging capabilities of modern warfare.”

Maksym Vasylchenko, Co-Founder and CEO of Tencore, added: “Ukrainian engineers have developed highly effective ground robotic systems under real operational conditions. With Quantum Systems, we now have the industrial partner to scale these systems in Germany, expand production, and ensure reliable delivery to Ukrainian forces.”

TerMIT is a modular, frontline-proven, multi-role tracked unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). It is designed to execute a wide range of ground missions, including logistics, field support, evacuation, and engineering tasks. Since 2023, TerMIT has proven itself in thousands of missions in Ukraine. It is designed as a software defined ground system, enabling continuous capability growth through software rather than hardware changes. Fully integrated into Quantum Systems MOSAIC UXS platform, the UGV benefits from ongoing development cycles that introduce new functions, optimizations and integrations over time. This program represents the largest known UGV procurement efforts in Europe to date and reflects the increasing operational role of unmanned ground systems in modern military operations.

QTI combines Ukrainian battlefield innovation with German industrial scale, creating a manufacturing and delivery model capable of bringing proven ground robotic systems into production at the pace and volume required by modern defence forces.
