Tactical
night vision devices and image intensifier technology
Global
armed forces have been operating with our premier night vision and image
intensifier technologies for enhanced threat detection and mission performance.
Engineered for unmatched performance in low or no light environments, our
tactical solutions deliver high-quality image intensification
Our latest innovation, the Lightweight Night Vision Binocular,
answers the challenges of size, weight and power. It increases warfighters’
low-light capabilities while introducing the industry’s leading close focus
range giving soldiers superior near eye clarity.
Our night vision and communications solutions
deliver integrated tactical equipment to meet the advanced needs of Department
of Defense, special operations forces and first responders around the world.
Our technologies include networked and
distributed tactical communication systems, night vision systems,
and associated engineering and training services.
The LWAC® (Light Weight Ammunition
Cases) reduces the weight by nearly 70%, introduces RFID tags for logistics
purposes, low noise handling, increased stacking capabilities and much more.
Our manufacture is specializing in the
development and production of lightweight packaging solutions for military
transportation, handling and storage of hazardous, high valuable and fragile
goods according to military requirements.
We are pleased to presentnew
innovative Light Weight Ammunition Cases, the LWAC. Patented designs and
special developed raw-material resins is what made it all possible. It is the
logistical and tactical Light Weight Ammunition Cases for the future.
Ammunition (small, medium and large-arms), pyrotechnics, explosives,
countermeasures, flares, weapons and other dangerous goods can now be placed
and transported safer and cheaper.
Moving away from the aging steel M2A1 to a
polymer LWAC M2A1 is only a question of changing supplier. The design is a
on-to-one drop in replacement, ensuring that all existing equipment using the
ammo can, stays the same.
The development of the case has been done
in close co-operation with end-users and the ammunition industry. It has
included hundreds of people, Ph.D’s, the technological institute and many
others. It has taken more tha 5 years to develop and create the product,
and the result is remarkable.
Benefits
LWAC (lightweight ammunition case)
provides numerous advantages. Most important, is the direct cost
savings over the full life cycle or total cost of ownership. This is due to:
68% lower
weight compared to existing steel boxes
Cross
stacking both 90⁰ and vertical
Increased
temperature range with reduced heat transfer
Ready for
built-in RFID tags
Low
noise handling during contact with hard surfaces
No
risk of sparks
One-to-one
replacement with the existing M2A1 steel box
Certified according
to MIL-STD, STANAG / MOPI and DEF-STAN requirements
UN-
Approved, UN 4H2/21.5/S/15/DK/ETi-15003/PPD regulations (ADR convention)
for safe land, air and sea transportation of hazardous goods
Recyclable
and reuse-able
Multiple
choice of color, according to ammunition type
The significance of the
weight saving is demonstrated by the savings that would have represented a
saving of 8 C-130 flights (and €1.14M) just in entry flights let alone savings
on in theatre transport.
Shifting ammunition is a
very large part of the logistic requirement so any weight saving has an instant
human return not to mention savings in costs, CO2 emissions and other green
issues etc. For the humble infantryman the weight saving will reduce future
medical costs for damaged knees and backs.
The
LWAC is already under evaluation by the MoD´s of UK, US, Singapore, UAE,
Denmark and Norway,. Furthermore, Rheinmetall has agreed to expand the LWAC®
program by including Insensitive Munition containers.
The
LWAC is fully recyclable without any preparation and meets all the EU
requirements for “green gas” emissions out to 2040.
