Slinger is an anti-drone weapon system developed by Electro Optic Systems (EOS) of Symonston, Australia.It was introduced in May 2023. [1] [2]It consists of: a remote controlled weapon station (RCWS) based on the EOS model R400 RCWS that uses a lightweight Bushmaster M230LF autocannon which is fully stabilised and capable of on-the-move operation. 150 radio frequency proximity fused, high ...
Students attempt to flee lethal microdrones. The dramatization, seven minutes in length, is set in a Black Mirror-style near future. [8] [9] Small, palm-sized autonomous drones using facial recognition and shaped explosives can be programmed to seek out and eliminate known individuals or classes of individuals (such as individuals wearing an enemy military uniform).
A Pischal-Pro anti-drone rifle, featured at the Dubai Airshow, 2019. A weapon often described as an "anti-drone rifle" or "anti-drone gun" is a battery-powered electromagnetic pulse weapon held to an operator's shoulder, pointed at a flying target in a way similar to a rifle, and operated. While not a rifle or gun, it is so nicknamed as it is ...
To the average American, drones might just seem like a toy or a fun hobby. But they can pose a serious security threat. In just over a week, the federal government's authority to detect and ...
The tail-sitting drone takes off on the spot but flies like an airplane for greater efficiency, giving it a 40-minute range while packing a fully-automatic Vepr-12 shotgun with a 10-round magazine.
For over a century, military shotguns have been a key tool for American soldiers, helping them to breach doors, clear trenches, and maintain an upper hand in close-quarters combat.
In June 2021, Rheinmetall tested its 35 mm revolver gun against drone swarms with the use of AHEAD ammunition. Firing PMD 428 rounds, [13] [14] an eight-drone swarm was neutralized with an 18-round burst, most of them being destroyed with the first six rounds. [15] In mid-2022, AHEAD was the subject of study by a group of Chinese scientists. [16]
As a directed EMP, the system has advantages over other DEWs; lasers can only be used against one target at a time while an HPM can focus on a large area, and it works against autonomous UAVs with no link back to an operator that radio jamming would be ineffective against. Because it is software-based, it is able to discriminate between enemy ...
