German defense startup ARX Robotics, which specializes in self-driving, modular battlefield robots, has secured €31 million in Series A funding led by HV Capital. The investment round also included support from Omnes Capital, the NATO Innovation Fund, and Project Acom. ARX Robotics plans to use the funds to develop its military vehicles and build a manufacturing plant in England. The startup is part of a broader surge in European defense technology investment, particularly in Germany, where venture capital is increasingly directed toward military technology startups. This trend is driven by heightened interest in advanced defense capabilities amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, with European startups attracting tech talent, including former employees from major American firms.
