Products: loitering-munition, ugv. Risk band: Low RobotRisk index 12.2/100 (incidents/exposure, time-weighted) · 90th percentile of 118 defense space companies.
STM's record in the defense-space category consists of a single 2021 entry: a UN report stating its Kargu-2 loitering munition may have autonomously engaged targets in Libya. The event is classified as regulatory with a severity rating of 4, the highest severity among the low-band entities in this set. The index of 12.4 and 90.6 percentile place STM in the low band on a single-event basis, but the severity rating reflects the gravity of an international body's finding rather than a documented pattern of occurrences. The record is regulator-driven, originating from a UN investigative report rather than a manufacturer recall or press account of an operational failure.
