In 2015, the United States planned to procure 7,474 rounds with a FY 2015 total program cost of US$1.9341 billion at an average cost of US$258,777 per unit. [6] By 2016, unit costs were reduced to US$68,000 per round. [7] Versions that add laser-guidance capability and are designed to be fired from naval guns began testing in 2015.
Second, long-range remote capabilities, so the call could be placed a distance away for the best vantage point. The third would be rechargeable, long-life batteries on the remote and call.
The U.S. Army developed the Coyote with a counter unmanned air system (C-UAS) capability to intercept other small UAVs. The Coyote Anti-UAS is 24 in (600 mm) long with a 58.0 in (1,473 mm) wingspan and is launched from a pneumatic box launcher with a maximum speed of 81 mph (130 km/h). It weighs 13 lb (5.9 kg) and delivers a kinetic effect by ...
The primary mission of a loitering munition is reaching the suspected target area, target acquisition during a loitering phase, followed by a self-destructive strike, and the munition is optimized in this regard in terms of characteristics (e.g. very short engine lifetime, silence in strike phase, speed of strike dive, optimization toward ...
As a result, the army embarked on the Light Armoured Vehicle Project, which would adapt parts of the MRCV Project, and be implemented incrementally to spread out the costs. Also, the requirement to replace the Bisons was dropped. The first phase of the project saw the selection of the LAV II Coyote Reconnaissance Vehicle to replace the Lynx.
This long-range anti-personnel rifle would replace the aging C3A1 bolt-action rifle which fired the smaller 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge which had been in service since the 1950s. In 2001 during trials for new sniper rifles at CFB Gagetown , the C14 Timberwolf MRSWS was picked to become the new designated anti-personnel sniper rifle for the ...
The requirement for the new pistol originated with the MHS program initiated by the Air Force in 2008. It has received Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) validation. The MHS program was to select a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) handgun in fiscal year (FY) 2011–2012. Testing was to be completed by FY2013 and type classification was ...
Weighing less and delivering higher velocities than the 9mm, the .22 TCM is also compared to calibers like the 7.62×25mm Tokarev and FN 5.7×28mm. These characteristics make it viable for lightweight and compact personal defense weapons (PDWs), such as AR-15-style pistols, akin to those conceptualized in the Colt MARS Program. [14]
