#RemoteControl

BAE Systems has announced a new robotic unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) that could assist future infantry units with tasks ranging from explosives ordnance disposal (EOD) to casualty evacuation (CASEVAC), and even target suppression. The robot, called “Ironclad”, comes in two variants, and is projected to have at least four modular equipment packages, including a machine gun installation, advanced sensor modules, robotic arm, and stretcher mounts.

Precision Remotes is offering a solar-powered, remote-controlled sniping kit for both ambush and counter-sniper applications.  The man-portable unit weighs 46 pounds (with weapon) and is contained in a backpack.
