01.1 PLATFORM PHILOSOPHY
MEGA RAPTOR / 8×8 STRUCTURAL ARCHITECTURE
DESIGNED TODAY.
ENGINEERED TO EVOLVE.
The RAPTOR 8×8 is MEGA’s flagship ground architecture. The vehicle’s double-wall structural design and engineering provide a foundation for future mobility, protection, onboard power and mission-system integration.
The program is intended to support crewed and progressively assisted operating modes while retaining human command authority.
01.2 THE PLATFORM
SIX FOUNDATIONAL PRIORITIES
An integrated approach to capability development
01
PROTECTED STRUCTURE
Reinforced double-wall body architecture and
survivability-focused design.
04
OPEN INTERFACES
Growth paths for sensing, computing, communications, power and future systems.
02
TACTICAL MOBILITY
A wheeled vehicle architecture intended for demanding operational environments.
05
CONNECTED OPERATIONS
Human-centered C2 and ISR concepts with onboard and offboard information.
03
CONFIGURABILITY
Mission equipment and systems organized around a common vehicle platform.
06
TECHNOLOGY REFRESH
Modular upgrades as mission demands and technical readiness evolve.
01.3 MISSION GROWTH
From protected personnel transport to UAS launch and sensor networks, RAPTOR share an underlying system philosophy. Each proposed configuration will require mission-specific
integration.
PROTECTION
Layered Survivability
The structural foundation for proposed protection technologies.
MISSION CONFIGURATION
Mission Integration
Configurable mission equipment within a common platform.
