Wargaming is a powerful tool that allows militaries and strategists to simulate conflicts and test tactics, decisions and technologies without the risks associated with real-world operations. During Estonian Defence Week, Milrem’s Concept Development and Experimentation Team showcased its wargaming-based approach to developing and optimising new operational concepts and products. A scenario was set up, resolved and discussed, investigating manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) in the Baltics’ operational environment, with a panel of distinguished guests from Milrem Robotics, the Estonian Armed Forces and Threod. Wargaming and operational simulation capabilities are highly valued for sparking cognitive processes that promote innovative and creative thinking. This is one of the greatest advantages our team offers: developing and delivering the military capabilities of tomorrow, today. #MilremRobotics
