The Atlas CCV boasts unmanned protection and survivability features designed to safeguard critical systems and payload.
Despite the fact that the vehicle is unmanned, this doesn't mean that it isn't protected. The vehicle's survivability features include tailored protection options to reduce mass while safeguarding critical subsystems like its autonomy technology and ammunition storage. The Atlas can carry several tones of payload within its protected hull, including ammunition, fuel, rations, water, and mission-critical equipment to support companion crewed platforms. All of these features have been built to help soldiers outpace, outmaneuver, and outthink conventional and unconventional threats. The Atlas has been built on more than 30 years of complex autonomous projects.

The Atlas will compete in the medium UGV sector while promising better mobility, lower costs, and a future role alongside crewed military platforms.
The vehicle will compete in the medium UGV sector against the likes of the GDLS TRX, Textron Systems Ripsaw M-V, and Millrim Type X, all of which are tracked. However, the wheeled Atlas has a huge advantage in terms of road mobility and speed. It's thought it could potentially become a leader in its field. By adding uncrewed platforms like the Atlas CCV to ground forces, BAE Systems has suggested that overall costs will be driven down. with UGVs being cheaper to produce and to operate since they require a smaller personnel footprint. At the same time, the company very much sees Atlas CCV alongside crewed platforms like tanks and infantry fighting vehicles for the future of the battlefield.
