Autonomous Systems: Land & SeaBackground
Svensk Konstruktionstjanst is a Swedish engineering firm and one of the partners named in iMUGS2, the EU's programme to build a shared control standard for military ground robots. Some 29 organisations across 15 EU countries make up the programme, aiming to prove its shared standard at a 2028 exercise in Norway.
Its scale sets it apart within the group: alongside national research institutes and established defence manufacturers, Svensk Konstruktionstjanst represents the specialist engineering-firm tier of a 15-country consortium built mostly from larger, more established organisations.
That standing puts a smaller Swedish engineering firm inside a consortium whose other partners include national research institutes and major defence primes, a scale of programme membership a purely domestic contract would rarely offer a firm its size.
Svensk Konstruktionstjanst joins the 2028 test
Svensk Konstruktionstjanst appears in Shephard Media's 11 August 2026 roster of iMUGS2 partners, the EU programme building a shared control standard for military ground robots. The 29-strong consortium is working toward a three-day trial in Norway in 2028, the point at which the standard gets tested for the first time.
As a Swedish engineering firm, Svensk Konstruktionstjanst sits at a different scale to the national research institutes and large defence primes elsewhere in the consortium, one of the smaller specialist firms carrying the programme's engineering work toward that 2028 test.
