    A large military heavy-lift helicopter, consistent with a Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion, is positioned on an arid desert airfield with its rear cargo ramp open. Adjacent to the helicopter is a multi-wheeled military ground vehicle, possibly an autonomous or remote-controlled logistics platform. Several additional helicopters are visible in the background on what appears to be a forward operating base or training area.

    An HDT WOLF prepares to board a CH-53E Super Stallion with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 462, Marine Aircraft Group 39, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, during Service Level Training Exercise 4-26 on Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, California, Aug. 9, 2026. The HDT Wolf is a powerful, compact 6x6 skid-steer unmanned ground vehicle designed to go over terrain where manned vehicles would have difficulty maneuvering through. 2nd MARDIV is testing this asset for its capabilities to resupply Marines in austere environments using autonomous unmanned equipment. SLTE 4-26 is designed to be a challenging, realistic training environment that produces combat-ready forces capable of operating as an integrated Marine Air Ground Task Force across all domains of military operations.

    A U.S. Marine in desert camouflage (MARPAT) uniform operates what appears to be an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) using a handheld controller in an arid desert environment. The robotic vehicle is a large 8-wheeled autonomous ground platform with airless/non-pneumatic tires, likely used for logistics or resupply missions. Additional military vehicles are visible in the background, suggesting a field exercise or technology demonstration.
