Hecthor II: The New Generation of Czech UGV Is Here
The latest version of the multi-purpose tracked UGV is designed for operations in environments where deploying firefighters and rescue personnel would be too risky — for example, areas affected by large-scale fires, rubble, or the risk of explosion. The new firefighting configuration combines a robust electric chassis, remote control, and a powerful firefighting module with a long water reach.
The second version of Hecthor was developed through cooperation between two Czech companies. They joined forces less than six months ago with the aim of pushing the limits of firefighting and rescue technology toward maximum operational efficiency and deployment safety. The Prolab Engineering team was joined by engineers from THT Polička, who brought their experience in firefighting technology to the project. Hecthor II is a Czech machine from design to production.
Thanks to its performance and reliability, Hecthor II stands out in places that are unsafe for firefighters. With its powerful electric drive, high payload capacity, long endurance, and professional firefighting module, it can replace people in the most demanding conditions while allowing them to control the intervention from a safe distance.
- Fully electric drive: 80 kW / 3000 Nm
- Payload capacity: 300 kg + towing capacity: 5 t
- Endurance of up to 10 hours, range of approximately 80 km
- Firefighting flow rate: 1500 l/min, water reach of approximately 57 m
- Autonomy, AI, and 360° LiDAR
Thanks to its robust tracked chassis, powerful firefighting module, and remote-control capability, Hecthor II can take over the riskiest part of the job — from firefighting to logistics in hazardous zones.
- Remote firefighting in industrial sites and warehouses.
- Operations at fires with a risk of explosion, including chemicals, fuels, and pressure vessels.
- Work in smoke-filled or structurally unstable buildings after a fire or explosion.
- Transport of materials, hoses, and equipment into hazardous zones instead of firefighters.
- Support for rescue and technical operations in rubble and hard-to-access terrain.
