Volvo Autonomous Solutions (V.A.S.) and global transport and logistics provider DSV have officially initiated commercial autonomous freight operations in Texas. The milestone deployment marked its first revenue-generating cargo haul utilizing the purpose-built Volvo VNL Autonomous truck, establishing a foundation for scalable, self-driving fleet integration across North American logistics networks. The hub-to-hub freight runs operate directly between designated Aurora terminals in Dallas and Houston, fully absorbing the autonomous lanes into DSV’s existing regional distribution flows. Purpose-Built Hardware Integrated with the Aurora Driver The flagship vehicle utilized in the rollout is the Volvo VNL Autonomous, a Class 8 semi-truck engineered from the ground up for production-level self-driving applications. Rather than using aftermarket retrofits, the truck features factory-integrated redundantly engineered steering, braking, and power management systems to guarantee safety-critical backups. The vehicle’s primary digital guidance system is the Aurora Driver, an advanced suite of software and hardware combining long-range lidar, radar, and high-definition cameras. This sensory array allows the vehicle to safely navigate complex, high-density interstate traffic. To maintain strict alignment with Volvo’s structured safety frameworks during this initial launch phase, a professional safety driver remains behind the wheel to monitor system behaviors and retain override authority. Maximizing Asset Utilization via a Production-Level Ecosystem To support commercial operations at scale, V.A.S. is deploying its comprehensive Autona/freight program for DSV. This end-to-end transport ecosystem bundles the specialized autonomous trucks with self-driving technologies from strategic partners like Aurora and Waabi, while layering in the cloud-based dispatching routing, terminal management tools, and specialized maintenance infrastructure needed to support driverless operations. Helmut Schweighofer, CEO of DSV Road, stated that autonomous driving is rapidly moving toward real-world operations. He explained that the collaboration with Volvo in Texas represents a production-level, depot-to-depot setup that presents clear opportunities to improve safety and driver comfort, mitigate a growing regional driver shortage,

Ukraine has developed technology that automates 95% of the process of intercepting Shahed drones.
The technology was developed by MaXon Systems, according to Zbroyari and Defender Media.
The system has already successfully passed combat tests in the Kharkiv region with a unit of the 12th Special Forces Group.
Video confirmation was published today by the state-run Brave1 platform, of which MaXon Systems is a member.
The operator views the movement of targets in real time, selects a target, and issues a strike command. After that, the system autonomously guides the drone to the target, independently identifies it, and locks onto Shahed-type UAVs.
Ukrainian Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov reported that, with the support of Brave1, the manufacturer was able to transition from the prototype stage to successful combat deployment in less than a year.
“Autonomy is one of the key areas of development in modern air defense. Such technologies allow for a faster response to massive attacks and more effective protection of Ukrainian cities,” Fedorov noted.

Supply runs in hostile territory usually mean rolling the dice with human lives. American Rheinmetall and EV startup Harbinger just announced they're changing those odds with autonomous hybrid trucks that can haul cargo 500 miles without a driver—or a fuel stop. The partnership, revealed in May 2026, combines Harbinger's fully drive-by-wire electric chassis with Rheinmetall's combat vehicle expertise. Their "Praesidia" prototype promises something military logistics has never seen: - Silent electric operation - 100kW of exportable power for weapons systems - Enough range to complete extended missions without charging infrastructure Think Tesla's Cybertruck, but designed to survive IED attacks while powering counter-drone systems. This isn't just about fancy tech—it's about "attritable mass," Pentagon speak for systems cheap enough to lose in combat. Traditional military trucks cost millions and require trained drivers who become targets. These robotic mules flip that equation entirely. According to Harbinger CEO John Harris, the goal is "keeping service men and women out of harm's way" while delivering supplies under fire. If insurgents destroy one, you've lost hardware, not lives—a calculus that fundamentally changes how military logistics operates in contested areas. The technology hinges on Harbinger's drive-by-wire architecture, where steering, braking, and acceleration happen electronically rather than through mechanical linkages. No cab, no steering wheel, no human vulnerability. Electronic controls mean autonomous software can command these trucks without complex retrofitting. American Rheinmetall's Matthew Warnick calls it "one of the most autonomy-ready commercial chassis ever built in the United States"—basically plug-and-play robotics for military missions. The hybrid powertrain offers tactical advantages beyond just range: - Silent battery-only operation for stealth missions - Reduced heat signatures - Massive onboard power generation for electronic warfare systems Joint demonstrations begin this summer, targeting rapid prototyping programs that could field these trucks within years, not decades. The real test isn't whether they

If artificial intelligence (AI)-based unmanned self-driving Remicon mixer trucks are introduced, how effective will they be. Currently, the cost of transporting one mixer truck based on the metropolitan area is about 75,000 won (excluding oil costs). Assuming that ready-mixed concrete manufacturers operate self-driving mixer trucks on average five times a day and 25 days a month, transportation costs alone will reduce about 112 million won per vehicle per year. On top of that, the benefits are even greater as the burden of additional costs such as waiting allowances for construction sites and recovery allowances paid to recover ready-mixed concrete washing water disappears. Of course, the manufacturer is responsible for vehicle maintenance, self-driving subscription fees, and insurance premiums. There is also a variable that winter is the off-season of construction. Currently, the price of new ready-mixed concrete mixer trucks is generally around 160 million. On top of that, if the price of the self-driving mixer truck is set at around 200 million won in consideration of the cost of the AI system, the recovery period of the investment considering the reduction in transportation costs is expected to be within three years. It is an investment worth trying if you are a large manufacturer of ready-mixed concrete. This scenario is supported by the fact that there are many cases of recovering investments based on three years even when introducing industrial robots. The ready-mixed concrete truck runs a relatively fixed route from the ready-mixed concrete plant to the construction site. The technical difficulty is relatively low compared to taxis heading to different destinations each time. Above all, if a market can be formed, technology will be rapidly advanced. It can also prepare for safety risks caused by aging. According to a 2022 survey by the Korea Federation of Remicon Industry Cooperatives, the average

500-mile autonomous hybrid military EV for US: Harbinger and Rheinmetall unveil truck concept Rheinmetall and Harbinger aim to turn commercial electric truck technology into autonomous battlefield logistics platforms. Electric vehicle startup Harbinger has reportedly teamed up with American Rheinmetall to develop various trucks for military use. Based on the former’s medium-duty hybrid and electric truck chassis, the plan is to develop trucks ranging from robotic cargo haulers to battlefield logistics and resupply vehicles. Since Rheinmetall has extensive experience as a defense contractor, it will be able to provide expertise on survivability and integration into military supply chain operations. The new vehicles will use something called “drive-by-wire,” which essentially means steering, braking, and acceleration will be electronically, not mechanically, operated. Such a setup will be essential for remote operations, autonomous operations, and potentially artificial intelligence-assisted driving. The new vehicles will also form part of the Pentagon’s drive for what it calls “attritable mass.” In essence, this means they are looking for ways to field hardware that is cheap enough to be essentially disposable if needed. Harbinger of the future of army logistics? This is especially the case when trained personnel are thrown into the mix. Losing a $50 million vehicle and its crew is not only expensive but should be avoided if at all possible. And this is where Harbinger and Rheinmetall’s venture potentially comes into its own. If dangerous logistics and supply runs can be achieved using cheap autonomous electric vehicles, the costs of losses become more acceptable. Electric vehicles (EVs), in particular, offer some interesting benefits in this role too. First and foremost, they are relatively quiet in operation, making them better suited for stealth logistics, reconnaissance, and nighttime resupply. They also produce less of a heat signature compared to internal combustion engine-driven vehicles. EVs also benefit from massive

Currently, the price of new ready-mixed concrete mixer trucks is generally around 160 million won. On top of that, if the price of the self-driving mixer truck is set at around 200 million won in consideration of the cost of the AI system, the recovery period of the investment considering the reduction in transportation costs is expected to be within three years. It is an investment worth trying if you are a large manufacturer of ready-mixed concrete. Currently, this standard is also aimed at introducing industrial robots. It can also prepare for safety risks caused by aging. According to a 2022 survey by the Korea Remicon Industry Cooperative Federation, the average age of mixer truck drivers was 58 years old, with those in their 60s and 70s accounting for 44.8%. The new technology can reduce the risk of safety accidents and increase transportation process transparency. But these benefits remain a pipe dream. The reality is that ready-mixed concrete transportation businesses take collective action every year demanding higher transportation costs, and the government has restricted new registration of ready-mixed concrete mixer trucks for 17 years due to supply and demand control, so the license plate of the mixer truck is traded for tens of millions of won. Starting on the 8th, ready-mixed concrete transport operators in the Seoul metropolitan area warned of a complete suspension of operations along with demands for higher transportation costs, putting the industry on alert. It is feared that construction schedules at large construction sites such as Samsung Electronics' Pyeongtaek Campus will be disrupted. The annual collective action rather accelerates the unmanned transition, which reduces dependence on field personnel. Social consensus on the introduction of autonomous driving technology can also grow. In 2026, the transition period for AI, collective action that takes industry as a hostage is

Commercial truck startup Harbinger is partnering with the robotics experts at American Rheinmetall to develop an uncrewed military ground vehicle based on the company’s medium duty hybrid and electric truck chassis. When Harbinger debuted its new medium-duty EREV chassis last summer with more than 500 miles of combined range, it grabbed the attention of many people in the industry who wanted a cleaner, more cost-effective way to move goods from point A to point B, but didn’t know if they could trust America’s existing EV infrastructure – and American Rheinmetall is hoping that list of people includes buyers at the Department of War. Under the new agreement, Harbinger will provide its high-performance, hybrid-electric and fully drive-by-wire medium duty chassis, while Rheinmetall provides vehicle integration, mission systems, and modular autonomous architecture tech. “Harbinger has always built for the toughest commercial missions, and the Warfighter’s mission is the toughest of all,” explains John Harris, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Harbinger. “Partnering with American Rheinmetall, one of the most capable ground systems integrators serving the DoW, allows us to bring our autonomy-ready platform at a price point that makes true attritable mass possible. Together, we can give Soldiers robotic systems that are affordable enough to be everywhere they’re needed, and tough enough to do the job when they get there. Most importantly, by taking the driver out of the vehicle with advanced autonomy and teleoperation, we can keep service men and women out of harm’s way.” Joint demonstrations of the big robotic pack mule are set to being this summer, with near-term prototyping opportunities through Commercial Solutions Openings (CSOs), Other Transaction Authorities (OTAs), and traditional programs of record commencing if the proof of concept is well-received.

If you’ve watched U.S. trucking for the past 18 months, the hydrogen storyline reads like a slow-motion pileup. Nikola went bankrupt. Hyzon pulled back to refuse trucks and then started shopping itself around. And the Department of Energy began clawing back money from the green-hydrogen hubs that were supposed to anchor the whole ecosystem. Heavy Duty Trucking summed up the moment bluntly: U.S. momentum for fuel-cell trucks has largely stalled since Nikola and Hyzon left the field. Toyota’s still in. Daimler and Volvo are still in. But actual hydrogen trucks on actual American roads stay thin on the ground. Meanwhile, about 7,000 miles away, a laundry-detergent company just went and did the thing American freight has spent half a decade arguing over. On June 4, 2026, Saudi Arabia’s Transport General Authority announced the rollout of the Kingdom’s first hydrogen-powered heavy-duty truck with autonomous driving built in, and one of the three names writing checks is Procter & Gamble. The Tide and Pampers people. The other two are Saudi distributor Ismail Abudawood and Chinese self-driving firm Hyperview. So while U.S. fleets keep debating whether hydrogen has a future, P&G’s Riyadh supply chain is already putting hydrogen freight on the road. What P&G actually put on the road The headline numbers are real, not slideware. Per the TGA, the truck runs on clean hydrogen, emits zero carbon at the tailpipe, refuels in minutes, and covers up to 1,500 kilometers on a fill. That’s roughly 930 miles between stops, comfortably past the 500-mile range Toyota quotes for its own hydrogen Class 8 in Southern California, and far enough to pull long-haul diesel routes into the conversation instead of leaving them in the “someday” bin. The autonomy isn’t robotaxi-grade, either. The partners describe a multi-level self-driving stack running on advanced software and AI, aimed
