Wilcox Industries’ Post

Innovation meets precision. Wilcox Industries’ RAPTAR-XE is redefining first-round hit capabilities with advanced ballistics technology. And we’re thrilled to bring this innovation to Norway as their official distributor! For operators in high-stakes environments, every second counts—and so does every shot. The RAPTAR-XE ensures unparalleled accuracy, even in the most challenging conditions. At Capsicum AS , we’re proud to align with cutting-edge solutions that prioritize efficiency, safety, and reliability. Check out the original post from Wilcox Industries to see how the RAPTAR-XE is transforming performance.

Based on my experience working for AFRL as a blast and ballistics research engineer, the damage caused by a blast wave decreases with the cube of its radius. Therefore, anything you can do to increase the standoff distance between you and the bomb makes you exponentially safer. These spikes might not look like much, but causing the drones to detonate even 18 inches further away is a drastic improvement.

🦔🇷🇺🦔🇺🇦🦔Like a vehicle straight out of #MadMax, we see the latest in anti-#FPV (first-person view) fashion below. This cutting-edge armor modification for armored vehicles features thousands of metal rods meticulously welded to steel plates, creating an intricate protective mesh. This design serves as a formidable defense mechanism against drone strikes, particularly those from #FPV #drones, which are increasingly used in modern combat scenarios. The metal rods form a resilient barrier that effectively disrupts the flight paths of incoming drones, causing them to crash or veer off course before they can reach critical vehicle components. This mesh-like structure not only absorbs and dissipates the kinetic energy from drone collisions but also prevents the drones from delivering their payloads effectively. By shielding essential parts of the vehicle, such as sensors, communication arrays, and crew compartments, this innovative armor significantly enhances the vehicle’s survivability on the battlefield. In addition to its physical protective capabilities, the presence of these metal rods can interfere with the drones' navigation and targeting systems, adding another layer of defense. As drone technology evolves, incorporating such sophisticated anti-drone measures becomes crucial in maintaining the operational effectiveness and safety of armored vehicles in hostile environments. This type of armor represents a significant advancement in counter-drone strategies, ensuring that military vehicles are better equipped to withstand the multifaceted threats posed by modern warfare technology. #AsymetricWarfare🦔 #Adaptability🦎

This is an interesting approach. likely to be somewhat effective.

The British Ministry of Defense has released the first footage of its new Dragonfire laser gun shooting down a drone in the Skies over Scotland the dragon fire is a prototype laser that cost more than 140 million pounds to develop it claims to be able to shoot down an object the size of a pound coin from more than a away now it's been in development for many many years it's been running later than planned we've seen three releases of information on this significantly the first was the first ever photographs of the drone shooting down a tethered Target more recently we saw still photographs of the same laser shooting down a drone that was flying and now the ministry of Defense has released the footage now the footage is not particularly uh different to those still images what we see uh is a laser beam shooting up into the sky at around a 45° angle one of the complexities that the people who've been developing this we weapon have had to overcome is how to produce such a powerful laser without actually destroying the device and the mirrors within the device that aim it onto its Target and one of the other problems of course is where does that laser beam end ‼️😧🤔 if you're shooting it out the sky what is behind your target is it going to hit something in space. Now these are potentially the Future Weapons of War. They do not require ammunition so potentially it's a gun that never runs out of ammo the prediction at the moment is these sorts of devices will initially be based on large warships. Because those warships can generate the power the electricity that the lasers need actually what we learned the ministry of Defense claimed that it cost just about £10 a pop to fire this so if and when these weapons are produced on a larger scale they may actually produce huge savings for the Armed Forces particularly given them giving them the capability to shoot down uh threats from swarms of drones which is something as we've seen in the 🇺🇦 war an evolving threat and of course we've seen. 🚨Important Comment 👨🏻💻 I think maybe enemies soldiers use mini laser gun for air drones. First of all, soldiers need to detected enemies air drones to fastly and sensitivity before air drones pilot or AI counterattacking.

When it comes to excelling in precision .22LR matches like NRL22, PRS22, or benchrest competitions, your choice of ammunition plays a pivotal role. While factors like rifle setup, optics, and environmental conditions matter, the ammo is often the defining factor in accuracy and consistency. Let’s dive into what makes the best .22LR ammo for precision shooting and why high-velocity rounds may not be your best bet. https://lnkd.in/g-fz3aEQ
