Under the agreement, the German side will deploy autonomous infrastructure systems in Ukraine, starting with AI-powered autonomous nutrition supply systems, which will soon appear at Brave1 facilities. Ukraine will become the first country in the world to test Circus products during active defence operations, the company notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brave1 and MITS Capital have not made the agreement public. At the time of publication, the editorial team had not received their comments regarding this partnership. Defender Media explains what is known about Circus Defence and the company\u2019s robotic kitchens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>UPD:<\/strong> After the article was published, Defender Media received a comment from MITS Capital. \u201cWe confirm that the memorandum has indeed been signed; however, due to security and operational reasons, its details remain undisclosed,\u201d the company said. \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to share more about this exciting partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Circus Defence<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Circus Defence is a subsidiary of Circus focused on solutions for the defence sector (autonomous robots, logistics, infrastructure). The parent company announced the creation of Circus Defence on 4 November 2025 \u2013 one day before the partnership with Brave1 and MITS Capital was revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Circus is a German company specialising in autonomous robotics and AI infrastructure. It was founded by several serial entrepreneurs in 2021. Historically, Circus concentrated on systems for civilian use, particularly cooking robots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, Circus\u2019s core product is the autonomous CA-1 nutrition system and the CircusOS operating system, which runs the company\u2019s robotic kitchens. Recently, the Ukrainian YouTube channel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Meykanemo\">Meykanemo<\/a> published a review of CA-1. The material describes in detail how the AI-based \u201csmart wagon\u201d can prepare and serve food without any human involvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u0422\u0435\u0445\u043d\u043e\u043b\u043e\u0433\u0456\u0457, \u0449\u043e \u0437\u043c\u0456\u043d\u044f\u0442\u044c \u043d\u0430\u0448\u0435 \u043c\u0435\u043d\u044e: \u0440\u043e\u0431\u043e\u0442\u0438-\u043a\u0443\u0445\u0430\u0440\u0456 \u0432 \u043e\u0444\u0456\u0441\u0430\u0445, \u043c\u0430\u0440\u043a\u0435\u0442\u0430\u0445, \u0410\u0417\u0421 \u0456 \u043d\u0430\u0432\u0456\u0442\u044c \u043d\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u043b\u044c\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0445 \u043a\u0443\u0445\u043d\u044f\u0445\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xq5FkAPsO4g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Video review of CA-1 by Meykanemo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CA-M: an autonomous kitchen for the military<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In April 2025, Circus introduced CA-M, a military version of its autonomous kitchen designed to prepare and pack meals for soldiers in field conditions. Packed in a camouflaged container, the AI system can operate fully autonomously and provide troops with hot meals in places where traditional kitchens do not exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developers say the CA-M\u2019s container design enables rapid transport and deployment, even in the field, providing round-the-clock access to fresh, nutritious meals without kitchen infrastructure or permanent staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen-1024x693.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen-1024x693.webp 1024w, https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen-300x203.webp 300w, https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen-768x519.webp 768w, https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen-1536x1039.webp 1536w, https:\/\/thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/circus-kitchen.webp 1758w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Autonomous food operation systems by Circus (CA-1 on the right, CA-M on the left).

How exactly Ukraine will use these systems remains unknown. According to the European outlet <a href=\"https:\/\/tech.eu\/2025\/11\/06\/circus-defence-makes-historic-first-deployment-with-brave1-in-ukraine-a-world-first-for-autonomous-defence-systems\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Tech.eu<\/a>, the first CA-M deployments are planned in the coming months in cooperation with local partners. The company is reported to have already signed initial contracts with Ukrainian partners, whose names are not being disclosed for security reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-left wp-element-button\"><strong>Read more:<\/strong> Service Ukraine has created a mobile command centre for UAV crews.

The Kyiv office will serve as a regional hub coordinating integration and maintenance across Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The agreement with Brave1 and MITS Capital is not limited to robotic nutrition systems. Circus Defence expects the partnership to become a foundation for a broader programme to supply various autonomous defence systems to Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ukraine will become the first country to test Circus products during active defence operations<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":16512,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","_featured_category_order":0,"_article_badge":"featured","footnotes":""},"categories":[28,32],"tags":[270,137,2181,1728,285],"class_list":["post-15260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ecosystem","category-innovation","tag-ai","tag-brave1","tag-circus-defence","tag-investments","tag-mits","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Circus Defence to supply autonomous nutrition systems for Ukraine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Ukraine will become the first country to test Circus products during active defence operations.
