built-in Laser Aiming Device (LAD) and patented safety features.
The excellent system is available in various configurations to suit
varying operational requirements.

recoil 5.56mm calibre light machine gun that meets all modern
combat requirements. It is a magazine-fed, gas piston-operated,
rotating bolt and air-cooled weapon that can be fired accurately
from the shoulder, hip or bipod in full-automatic mode. Designed
from the onset for ease of operation, the Ultimax 100 is an
excellent weapon for various kinds of terrain and
environment.

Transmission combines hydraulic and mechanical drive technologies
that deliver improved performance and efficiency for powerpack

upgrade kit offers an outstanding application for M113s and a wide
range of defence or commercial tracked and wheeled vehicles.
