MINERVA Initiative – Uncrewed Ground System for Surveillance and Reconnaissance
The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Army seek an uncrewed ground system for ground surveillance and reconnaissance that is domestically produced, easy to operate and maintain, and rugged enough for Canadian soldiers. The challenge is for Phase 2 prototype development, and proposed solutions at technology readiness levels 5 through 9 are eligible. The official posting identifies the funding mechanism as a contract and is open for submissions through September 10, 2026 at 14:00 Eastern time.
