SIG SAUER Advanced Concepts Update I caught up with SIG SAUER Advanced Concepts at SOF Week where they were showing some new developments. Up until recently they had been concentrating on Elite Training for drones and capability integration with existing systems. However, behind the scenes they were prototyping both new payloads as well as complete drones. They currently have a quad copter design called the R3 Saber with 3.5 propellers as well as the fixed wing Scythe. As you ca. see, the body is 3D printed and the Saber offers a 1300 gram payload capacity. As for payloads, they have developed the MH322, MH365, MHTASER, P320 SimFX/UTM and P365 airsoft end effectors which feature SIG’s SENTRY electronic and safety board, for control and reliability. Calibers include .22, .380, and 9mm as well as Taser and UTM capabilities. Seen here is the MH322 which weighs in under 600 grams. It offers a 25-round payload, precision laser targeting, and advanced tracking via remote operations. www.sigsauer.com/defense-products Read the full article here
