Don't avoid the question and ask for more examples. You asked
for examples and got it now you have to answer the question.
How is STK even unique, or the first in this concept of ABM
given others have already done it?
Even Rheinmetall Defence, which is a defence contractor that is
much bigger then STK long has this figured out. As they said, the
concept is NOTHING NEW and have their own line of 40mm ABM... the
only difference it seems is that this is so chicken feat for them
that they unlike STK, do not see the need to scream about it in
local papers like the Straits Times to influence people like you
who don't seem to know anything at all about all things military so
you can start to extrapolate fantastic abilities like killing
tank-optics at extreme range for it:
As the Germans said:
"The basic concept isn't
entirely new. RWM Schweiz AG already developed its
35 mm Ahead ammunition for
air defence more than ten years ago," says senior
scientist Pierre Freymond. "The Ahead projectile contains a
programmable time fuse that is inductively programmed at the
muzzle. The fire control unit calculates the fuse setting time on
the basis of specific parameters (such as air pressure,
temperature, range and muzzle speed)."
Note, 10 years ago. STK is simply using a decade old idea.
I need
laser range finder for both calibres
Please don't demostrate your ignorance of military
technology.
Why would you need a seperate range finder for both calibers?
All you need is one and you shoot accordingly to the range as
indicated by your sight.
Why increase weight for an extra range finder that will tell you
redundant information? Do you need seperate salt shakers for your
soup and fries?
With billions of defense budgets.how come there is no
dual calibres hand held weapon in US?
Adding smart munitions to this is nothing new, just
teaching an old dog new tricks, for some reason you seem to think
that STK is the only company who knows how to do it.
If you are talking about why there isn't any smart grenade
launcher in use currently, use your common sense:
Look at above proposed XM 8.Rifle plus single shot GL.Old stuff
lah.
That is practical, not old. Instead of trying to figure out how
to keep messing around with heavy and slow 40mm rounds, this is
just a stopgap while they work with a new format, you want to mess
around with stacking 40mm grenades or coming up with a clunky SSW
to load them in a magazine be my guest.
What is old stuff? Trying to make old 40mm grenades "smart"? Or
working to develop a new, faster, and more effective round?
Instead of just teaching new tricks to a limited 40mm grenade
format, the US is researching on a new ammunition format that is up
to 500 percent more capable in engaging targets then the old
40mm HEDP format.
It is obvious you have run out of examples and are just trying
to twist each and every example, no matter how bad the point you
create is in a weak attempt to try to show why STK even has
anything on the yanks.
Unfortunately it's not working.
I mean rifle plus grenade.Rifle + shot gun is ready or soon wil
be ready
for Yankees.
Another case of your not doing your homework.
This has long been in use, for some reason you seem to think it
is "ready or soon wil be ready for Yankees"
What's next? You're going to ask if the AK47 is "ready or soon
wil be ready for Ruskies?"
