Rifle-Mounted Gunfire Locator detect… locate… protect…

• Determines the direction, range and elevation of the source of incoming hostile high velocity gunfire

• Fixes the target accurately out to 1200 metres within 1.3 seconds

• Self-contained, lightweight and rugged design

• Works with or in parallel with other optics

• Powered by 2 Lithium AA batteries for a 7 hour operation

• Can be attached on weapons, optics and equipment with minimal user operational disruption

• Clockface screen for intuitive alignment with the target fire base

• Clear visible display for daylight and night vision goggles

The Rifle-Mounted Gunfire Locator

(RMGL)



• Advanced inertial system provides an accurate “target” position, regardless of sensor movement

• Complex algorithms isolate the source of hostile fire in high noise backgrounds

• Downloadable data memory

• Innovative solution provides enhanced situational awareness for military and civilian users in permissive to hostile environments

• Saves ammunition, other ordnance and lives



Technical highlights

• Proven sonobuoy acoustic technology

• Proven effective against high velocity fire

from 5.56mm, 7.62mm (long and short)

and 12.7mm and other infantry weapons

• Nominal accuracy +/- 7 degrees in

direction and elevation and 10% in range

• Greater than 95% probability of correct

detection and localisation of hostile fire

ULTRA ELECTRONICS



Technical highlights

• Target position updated ten times

a second for seamless display motion

• Weight 450g

• 160 x 128 pixel OLED display

29mm x 23mm active size with

adjustable brightness and red lighting

• Extensively trialled and assessed by UK

System design • Quick release mechanism to detach from weapon

• Modular and configurable for infantry rifles and

anything with a “Picatinny Rail” or suitable fix point

• Lightweight and rugged

• Simple menu system and intuitive display

ULTRA ELECTRONICS



System design

• Visible display in all conditions with

white and red light for day and night

vision systems

• Optional audible/voice target direction

prompts

• Powered by two Lithium AA cells giving

+/- 7 hours operational use

• Data port readily adaptable for

network enabled utility



Design • Clockface pointer for alignment with the target

• Optional cross hairs for fine tuning in direction

and elevation when alignment reaches 12 o’clock

• Displays range to target

• Displays number of events detected

• Battery indicator

• Menu system with two-button control

• Status screen and menu system display

• For individual and command use

Gunfire Locator - Detection Systems Now…

• Number of RMGLs are “in theatre” for operational assessment.

• Improved software and miniaturisation.

• Raised international interests concerning our offerings for static and rotary detection systems

• Networked systems, energy mapping and mapping to enhance operational area security

• UK funded projects to focus a spectrum of acoustic locator research and to develop answers to detect direct fire low velocity projectiles (RPG/Rockets) in complex environments

• Production in place for expected short term and cost effective requirements

• Direct global military and civil interest and dialogue concerning security, stability and overall “Resilience” issues

• Networked capability can evolve to synchronise with C4ISTAR systems and the military and civil “Operational (Combat) Space”
