To demonstrate the ease of mission system integration Supacat have collaborated with Exsel, Dedrone and Leonardo DRS:

Exsel specialises in the design and integration of mission equipment into mobile platforms and container based solutions. This installation demonstrates the ease of integration of a lightweight mast onto an HMT platform. The mast utilises the vehicle onboard air to rise to 6m, with up to 20kg of interchangeable masthead payloads.

Dedrone provides essential tools for soldiers to stay ahead of ever evolving drone threats. Their Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) detection technology has been integrated onto the mast.

Leonardo DRS supplies the Mounted Family of Computer Systems (MFoCS) which provides next generation tactical computing to support on vehicle Mission Command and Battlefield Management with enhanced situational awareness and communication across the battlefield.

Kongsberg specialise in Remote Weapon Stations. Fitted to the HMT is a Protector RS4 allowing the crew to identify and engage targets from within the protected environment provided by the vehicle.

The systems integrated onto the Supacat HMT platform are designed to equip soldiers with the means to identify and respond to threats effectively and help protect lives.
