At AUSA 2024, Textron unveiled the XM204 Top Attack (TA) System, an innovative autonomous anti-vehicle technology designed to create terrain-shaping obstacles on the battlefield. Developed under the U.S. Army’s Terrain Shaping Obstacles (TSO) program, the XM204 uses seismic, acoustic, and radar sensors to detect and engage enemy armored vehicles. This top-attack system deploys mines equipped with explosively formed penetrator (EFP) charges, targeting the vulnerability in vehicle upper armor. The XM204 can be integrated with drones for enhanced mobility and range, offering real-time adaptability to evolving battlefield conditions. This system will be fielded by the U.S. Army in 2025 and is a crucial part of the Army’s modernization priorities, enhancing long-range precision fires and counter-mobility capabilities for defense forces worldwide.
