Remote-controlled turret BattleGuard passed the test
US military experts tested the new weapon module BattleGuard. The tests were conducted at the site of Fort Benning (Georgia).
New weapon It is a remote-controlled turret, which is equipped with thermal imaging equipment and an electron-optical system. During tests, BattleGuard successfully hit all types of targets, both static and moving at a fairly high speed.
One of the great advantages of BattleGuard American experts call the fact that you can install two weapons at once on the turret. For example, it could be a combination of a grenade launcher and a 5,56-mm machine gun. Even install an anti-tank missile system on BattleGuard to effectively combat the enemy’s armored vehicles. If the system has two types of weapons, then it allows you to quickly select the right, and therefore, to achieve more tangible results in the destruction of the enemy.
The BattleGuard platform is equipped with an advanced software package that allows the operator to work on the choice of targets, to direct both types of weapons even to such objects, the angle between which reaches 180 degrees. By the way, the optical system of the remote-controlled complex allows you to carry out a 360-degree survey of the area, and quickly find a target for destruction. Thermal imaging equipment allows aimed fire in any weather, as well as at any time of the day or night.
Experts report that the system has the ability to track several targets at once using laser targeting. The laser captures the target and leads it until the fire is opened on it, or until the operator refuses to accompany this particular target.
The new rifle system allows you to hit targets with much greater efficiency than man does. Where the human eye is powerless due to its optical properties, the optical system BattleGuard works, which allows targeted fire from a machine gun at a distance over 2000 m.
Such a system can be effective on tanks and wheeled armored vehicles.
