The CCEMG launcher was developed in the early 1990s as part of the Cannon-Caliber Electromagnetic Gun (CCEMG) Program to demonstrate the viability of an electromagnetic multi-shot weapon. The CCEMG program was sponsored by the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development, and Engineering Center and the U.S. Marine Corps.
A railgun or rail gun, sometimes referred to as a rail cannon, is a linear motor device, typically designed as a weapon, that uses electromagnetic force to launch high-velocity projectiles. The projectile normally does not contain explosives, instead relying on the projectile's high kinetic energy to inflict damage. [ 2 ]
The former logo of Fire TV. Amazon Fire TV (stylized as amazon fireTV) is a line of digital media players and microconsoles developed by Amazon since 2014. [12] [13] [14] The devices are small network appliances that deliver digital audio and video content streamed via the Internet to a connected high-definition television.
The sighting unit on the launcher is enclosed in a unique protective cage, which is also a carry handle. The development reduced the over-all weight by four and a half pounds (2.0 kg) from the older SMAW launcher. The Serpent fires the same rounds as the standard SMAW and supports new and improved/enhanced rounds.
The Electro-Magnetic Laboratory Rail Gun is a 32-megajoule electro-magnetic laboratory rail gun being evaluated by the US Office of Naval Research (ONR) Naval Air Warfare and Weapons Department. The US Navy is pursuing development of the launcher system through two industry teams – General Atomics and BAE Systems – to reduce risk in the ...
A magnetic weapon is one that uses magnetic fields to accelerate or stop projectiles, or to focus charged particle beams. There are many hypothesized magnetic weapons, such as the railgun and coilgun which accelerate a magnetic (in the case of railguns; non-magnetic) mass to a high velocity, or ion cannons and plasma cannons which focus and direct charged particles using magnetic fields.
The E-Shotgun, also referred to as the E-Gun, Northshore Sports Club CA-09, [1] [2] or the PD-90 Advanced Coilgun, is a hand-held automatic 9-stage coilgun designed by Lei Fengqiao and manufactured by China North Industries Group Corp [3] in Xicheng District, Beijing, China (as well as "other technology teams"). In 2023, the CS/LW21 was ...
MBDA developed a launcher concept for the Enforcer missile. This launcher is designed to be mounted on light vehicles, likely for special forces missions. It is equipped with 2 missiles and passive sensors. The launcher concept was presented at Enforce TAC 2022, on an ENOK vehicle designed by ACS, based on the G464 G-Class. [19] [20]
