ARQUIMEA unveils its latest multi-domain loitering munition systems at DSEI

• ARQUIMEA is the leader in smart loitering munition systems, thanks to a comprehensive portfolio of short and medium-range smart and multi-domain portable solutions.
• Its offering includes the Q-SLAM loitering munition systems family, its GRIFO multi-launcher integrated into autonomous vehicles and its anti-drone jammer, SkyBlock.
• The new range that the company will unveil at DSEI includes the S-WISE unmanned submarine, a ground-breaking naval loitering munition system that includes key upgrades including speed, autonomy, payload, navigation and AI, edge computing and 3D printing.

 

Madrid, 5 September 2025 – ARQUIMEA, a Spanish technology company with more than 20 years of experience in the defence and security sectors, is showcasing at London’s Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) its full range smart, multi-domain loitering munition systems for land, sea and air, making it a leader in Europe for this tech segment. It will also exhibit its latest developments in mortar information and control systems.

 

S-WISE, the underwater loitering system for naval missions

ARQUIMEA will be unveiling the S-WISE, its underwater naval loitering munition system for detecting, locating and neutralising targets, as well as intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.

S-WISE is a unique solution in the unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV) market, since it offers substantial improvements in key capabilities such as speed, autonomy and the ability to integrate internal and external payload, as well as on-board edge computing. S-WISE is designed to stay autonomous for up to 24 hours, to reach speeds of more than 9 knots and cover up to 85 NM, as well as undertake unmanned missions using its integrated ATR.

ARQUIMEA’s exhibiting of this new solution comes after its acquisition of Perseo Techworks, a leading developer of unmanned naval vehicles, thus expanding its portfolio of smart loitering munition systems and unmanned naval systems.

This underwater solution completes ARQUIMEA’s offering for the naval space, together with Kronos, the surface naval loitering munition system that the company exhibited at Feindef. This remotely manned surface vessel is multi-functional, ready to be deployed for medium-range naval missions safely and efficiently, bolstering maritime superiority with optimum precision and adaptability.

 

Q-SLAM-100, the smart, medium-range loitering munition system

For the first time at DSEI, ARQUIMEA will be showing Q-SLAM-100, its smart, medium-range loitering munition system. This system is designed for medium-range missions with 120 minutes of flight autonomy and a 4 kg payload.

The system is equipped with DeepArq, an AI platform designed by ARQUIMEA that enables collaborative flights and autonomous decision making, situational awareness, object identification and classification and unknown situation awareness, giving Q-SLAM-100 the ability to make real-time risk assessments.

For short-range missions, ARQUIMEA is showing its Q-SLAM-40, a light and efficient loitering system that is already being deployed by a whole host of forces.

 

Grifo, the modular multi-launcher for vehicle loitering systems

The cutting-edge solution exhibited by ARQUIMEA features 5 Q-SLAM-40 launchers on a DUMA unmanned 8×8 Spectre vehicle. This modular solution can be launched easily on any kind of land platform, offering greater versatility and capacity in operations using loitering systems.

The Q-SLAM multi-launcher offers greater operational security, tactical flexibility and improved efficiency and ensures a rapid reaction and greater capacity to undertake collaborative missions with anti-drone jammers.

To round off the range of loitering systems, ARQUIMEA offers SkyBlock, its single-person anti-drone system. This solution inhibits communications to neutralise them.

 

Arquimea is bolstering its operational effectiveness with mortar control and information systems

Arquimea presents Techfire, its fire control system for mortars and artillery howitzers, designed to automate and accelerate direct and indirect fire operations. This system allows operators to effectively manage control and processing data, offering multiple applications that enable real-time operational information exchange. Its technology minimises collateral damage, improving coordination and streamlining decision making in the most demanding scenarios. Techfire is already in service in a number of NATO countries and armies worldwide.

Arquimea is also pursuing innovation and security for these systems through eCOMPASS, its mortar aiming system. This solution, which is already being deployed in various armies, simplifies and accelerates the aiming processing, combining speed, precision and ease of use to maximise the effectiveness of mortar in the battlefield. Its robustness and versatility make it compatible with all mortar types, irrespective of calibre, payload or firing speed.

With these solutions, Arquimea confirms its commitment to defence innovation and to developing technologies that improve the efficiency, security and operational capacity of global armed forces.

 

The company will be exhibiting its full range of defence tech at stand S1-315.
