The following article concerns the PILAR MKII-w: Ground Version which locates the origin of the shot and trajectory.
Using 2 Acoustic Sensors Arrays, PILAR MKII-w system not only locates in 3D the origin of the shot but also displays the bullet trajectory.
PILAR MKII-w device locates the origin of the shot within ±2° in bearing and a typical ±20% in range depending on the distance between the two arrays versus the firing range. The detection range can be over 1,500m. Because the localisation is performed on the supersonic signature of the passing bullet, the detection range of the PILAR MKII-w is above the effective range of the weapon.
Main features:
- Detection of caliber from 5.56 to 20mm
- Fully passive devices
- 360° x 90° field of view
- Response time lower than 1.5s
- Fully automatic and manual mode
- Report edition facility
- Up time greater than 98%, PILARw is designed for both military and civilian security forces for protection and situation awareness.
