| Benefits Firing
accuracy (M2S):
- BURST MODE
Dispersion : standard deviation <0.6m @ 800m
Precision : <0.3m @ 800m
- SHOT / SHOT MODE (SNIPER MODE)
Dispersion : standard deviation <0.4m @ 800m
Precision : <0.2m @ 800m
Versatile modular system:
accepts 7.62 GPMG, .50 Cal M2S, .50 Cal M3S
machine guns and automatic grenade launchers
Remote operation concept:
- Fully operable and serviced from under
armor
- Emergency mode of operation in case of power
failure
- High ammo capacity (up to 500 7.62 rounds and
300 .50 Cal rounds)
Stable operation performance within complete
elevation limits:
360° capability, +55° elevation, -20°
depression, 'no fire' limitations
Guaranteed performance under severe
environmental conditions:
the weapon cover provides full protection against
weather
Target acquisition system with day and night
capability:
- Day sight CCD camera
- Thermal Imager Night Vision System (uncooled)
- Increased hit probability : with use of the
UNIQUE high rate of fire (1,100 rpm) M3S .50 Cal
machine gun
Soft recoil mount:
- Optimized firing performance
- Minimized level of shocks and vibrations
Cook-off prevention of the weapon
Weapon management system
- Ammunition counter
- "End-of-belt" cut-off system
- Adjustable burst length
- Single mode vs burst firing mode
Modular
configuration: performance can be
enhanced with the following options:
- Stabilisation for firing on the move
- Target tracking system
- Ballistic protection for hostile
environment
- Laser range finder and ballistic computer
for firing improvement
- Embedded trainer, for increased operator
performance
- Built-in test for failure detection
- Thermal cooled camera
- Sight system with cleaning and de-icing /
de-fogging
- Remote operation - system can be controlled
from sheltered location, up to 30m from
vehicle
- Networkable system linked through vehicle
comms
- Links and cases collector
- Smoke Grenade Launchers
