Footage

PRIMARY SOURCE

Courtesy of HDT Global

HDT Global footage of its Hunter WOLF wheeled squad-support uncrewed ground vehicle (a Wheeled Offload Logistics Follower). Its core mode is follow-me, teleoperated, and waypoint-supervised, not full autonomy; it was selected for the US Army S-MET Increment II.

The U.S. Army selected HDT Global's Hunter WOLF to enhance robotic tactical mobility and logistical support operations.

Key facts

Operator: US Army (3rd BCT, 10th Mountain Division)
Program: Ground Optionally Autonomous Transport (GOAT); selected Oct 2024
Lifecycle stage (re-verified 2026-06-07): Active field evaluation with US Army 10th Mountain Division at Fort Polk (2026). Contender in S-MET Increment 2: $11.55M OTA prototype contract (8 units for gov test). Production decision anticipated late FY2027; potential acquisition up to 2,195 systems ($875M-$1.1B). RCV program cancellation in 2026 eliminated WOLF-X pathway, making S-MET Inc 2 the primary near-term volume opportunity.
