WARMATE is a versatile loitering munition system for precision strike and surveillance, with swarming capabilities and multiple warhead options for combat.

# WB Group WARMATE – Multi-Role Loitering Munition System

The WARMATE from Polish defense contractor WB Group is a combat unmanned aerial vehicle (CUAV) that functions as a highly precise, multi-role loitering munition system. It offers a cost-effective alternative to anti-tank guided missiles, providing strike capabilities for tactical units and special forces by combining surveillance with precision attack.

Versatile Mission Profiles and Payloads

1. Expendable Combat and Reusable Reconnaissance

In its combat configuration, WARMATE is expendable, carrying interchangeable warheads for targeted destruction. For reconnaissance, the UAV can be equipped with a daylight or thermal camera and recovered after the mission, allowing for reuse.

2. Swarm Attack Capability

The system supports swarm attack capabilities, enabling multiple WARMATE drones to coordinate and overwhelm enemy defenses or saturate a target area. This feature increases the system's effectiveness and survivability in contested environments.

3. High Precision and Autonomous Operation

WARMATE utilizes an automated video tracker for precise targeting, even if communication with the operator is lost. The system can fly autonomously along pre-programmed routes, with the operator having full control and responsibility for authorizing the final attack.

4. Deployment Flexibility

The lightweight system is man-portable, allowing for deployment by land or special forces. Its compact design also enables installation on various vehicles, including cars and armored personnel carriers, with integrated ground control stations.

5. Effective Against Armored and Personnel Targets

WARMATE can be equipped with various warhead types, including High Explosive Fragmentation (HE-FRAG) and High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT), making it effective against both enemy personnel and armored vehicles.
