Berlin, April 29, 2025 - YPOG has advised Munich-based defense technology company ARX Robotics on its €31 million Series A financing round. The round was led by HV Capital, with participation from Omnes Capital as well as existing investors NATO Innovation Fund and Project A.
ARX Robotics develops autonomous unmanned ground vehicles and the AI-based operating system Mithra OS. ARX robots can be equipped for a wide range of military scenarios, including live-fire training and simulations, transport and medical evacuation missions, as well as specialized sensor applications for reconnaissance operations. Founded in 2022, the company focuses on a fully European supply chain and addresses the growing demand for modular, software-defined defense systems. Six European armed forces are already deploying ARX Robotics’ solutions, including the largest Western-developed fleet of unmanned ground vehicles delivered to the Ukrainian army.
With the fresh capital, ARX Robotics plans to increase its production capacity fivefold over the next year, drive expansion into additional European markets, and accelerate the further development of its operating system for legacy vehicles. Recently, the company announced the opening of a new office in London and a planned production facility in southern England. In addition, ARX Robotics has entered into a strategic partnership with Daimler Truck to develop the next generation of military vehicles.
