M30 Bobcat

The next generation.

The SPIDAS M30 Bobcat is a wheeled 8x8 tank destroyer with a 100mm cannon featuring a semi-autonomous turret, targeting system, and enhanced protection systems. The second generation of SPIDAS systems strengthened their datalinks during design, allowing crews to communicate from vehicle to vehicle in encrypted communications without having enemies listen in. The datalinks allow tank commanders to also communicate with other assets such as drone platforms, AEW&C, and troops to coordinate strikes, flank positions, and assault targets. The M30 Bobcat and its variants are all armored fighting vehicles (AFV) designed to provide fire support to MBTs, deploy small amounts of specialized troops, and more. It's quick speed with recorded speeds of over 90 mph, as well as its agility, allow it to provide flexible support and assault.

Features:

Multiple Banded Communication Systems

The SPIDAS Gen 2 series is equipped with multi-banded communication systems, enabling it to receive real-time battlefield intelligence from recon drones, ground forces, and satellite networks. This constant data stream ensures that the vehicle remains fully situationally aware, allowing it to adapt to emerging threats, coordinate engagements, and optimize targeting solutions with minimal delay. To safeguard these communications, SPIDAS employs the Auctus Janus AI cybersecurity model, a next-generation encryption framework designed to prevent electronic warfare interference, hacking attempts, and signal disruptions. Auctus Janus continuously analyzes network vulnerabilities, reinforcing data integrity while ensuring that only authorized personnel can access mission-critical intelligence. This hardened cybersecurity infrastructure makes SPIDAS resilient against digital threats, ensuring uninterrupted strategic coordination and combat effectiveness in even the most contested environments.

Enhanced Protection

The SPIDAS Gen 2 series places a strong emphasis on protection, incorporating a suite of advanced defensive systems to ensure survivability in high-threat environments. Its upgraded Active Protection System (APS) provides 360-degree coverage against incoming projectiles, including missiles and RPGs, using a combination of kinetic interceptors and soft-kill measures like smoke and infrared jamming. Enhanced countermeasures are integrated to confuse and deflect both guided munitions and targeting systems. The vehicle also features reinforced armor plating using composite and reactive materials, increasing resistance to both kinetic and explosive threats. To safeguard its digital backbone, the new generation includes newer electronic reinforcement that hardens its systems against cyberattacks, signal interference, and electronic warfare, ensuring operational integrity even under heavy electronic assault.

Manned or Unmanned

The SPIDAS Gen 2 series features an advanced manned-unmanned switching module, allowing operators to seamlessly transition between human crewed operation and full AI autonomy depending on mission requirements. This system ensures maximum flexibility and adaptability, enabling SPIDAS to function as a directly controlled tank destroyer when crew oversight is necessary or operate entirely under AI guidance for independent deployments.

The module is designed with intuitive interface controls, allowing for rapid transitions between modes without requiring extensive reconfiguration. When piloted by a crew, Auctus Battlefield Assistance AI provides real-time intelligence, predictive enemy movement analysis, and optimal engagement recommendations, enhancing operator effectiveness.
