Stable and robust - the CHRYSOR is the ideal vehicle for unmanned reconnaissance and surveillance missions, even in difficult terrain. As a reconnaissance, transportation or active service system, this vehicle contributes to sustaining action capability, even in dynamic conflict situations that increasingly pose a hazard to life.

CHRYSOR is a rugged reconnaissance and intelligence gathering vehicle of the one-ton class. Its high mobility, state-of-the-art surveillance equipment and unmanned operation increase the degree of protection of the mission forces, and so represent a significant advance. The vehicle is deployed in zones hazardous to personnel for purposes of situation assessment, area surveillance or reconnaissance. Information gathered by the partially autonomous reconnaissance function supplies the mission leader with a crucial basis for taking decisions depending on the situation.

Moreover CHRYSOR is capable of traversing pre-specified paths autonomously. Alternatively, as is usual for UGVs, it can be controlled by radio from a command post. In doing so, the vehicle automatically detects obstacles and drives round these. With this capability, CHRYSOR contributes to protecting mission forces even in particularly hazardous situations, so preserving their capability for action. Keeping a safe distance is the basic precaution for effectively countering new threats in unknown terrain or in urban surroundings.
