People Portal, the world's first non-intrusive walk through detector that accurately pinpoints explosives, metallic and non-metallic weapons, ceramics and even drugs on a person.,with EMIT Technologies -
Was talking to one of the ST guys at AA2006 abt Metal Storm.
Its really solid stuff. Not only can it intercept incoming warheads, it also provides non-lethal options such as gas cannisters and pepper rounds.
The turrent can point pretty high too... which means it would be an excellent defensive weapon in FIBUA, being able to lob 40mm rounds up to 200meters at high angles.
The only thing that remains now, is for big players like the US to buy this system, so the new 40mm rounds for this gun can be standardised. Otherwise, its non-Nato standard 40mm round will work against it in sales. -
Extender drone
Sg is very strong in turning off-the -shelf commercial products
to military use with very high value added.'Everyone can build a drone, but what matters is the sensors you fit on them
--22/02/2006 STimes Page: H6
and one's ability to use them in a network where the information they gather
makes sense,' he said.
The task of integrating sensors and communications devices on UAVs is what occupies Mr Lim Kok Yong, 35, a programme manager
with DSO National Laboratories, which runs Singapore's
largest battle labs.
DSO's Extender drone is adapted from a commercially
available remote-controlled plane that costs about $1,000,
a fraction of the price of specialised UAVs.
DSO added cameras to the Extender so soldiers can use it to survey unknown territory.
Mr Lim found that making different electronic components
work together is a key challenge when adapting the small,
hand-held UAV for military use. 'The components worked
fine individually, but when we put them together, they didn't
work because the signals interfered with one another,' he said.
After some calculations and some trial and error, the sensors
on the 1.6kg plane worked well enough for DSO to
demonstrate it at a Singapore Armed Forces
urban warfare experiment last February.
During the demonstration, the battery-powered Extender
proved so silent when it orbited troops at an altitude of
100m that few soldiers noticed its presence.
As tests on the Extender continue, Mr Lim believes the drone's low cost
makes it a cost-effective surveillance tool. 'It's so cheap that if one is shot
down, the user will have no problem replacing it with another,' he said.

This is where alot of SG Kinetics tech is evidently going:

Although i'm not in sg at this time, i got fren to ask SG Kinetics for me and they said that the stuff they were developing with the us wasnt on show unfortunately.. -
2.stacked configuration low velocity 40 mm electrically ignited munitions (EIM)Originally posted by Shotgun:Was talking to one of the ST guys at AA2006 abt Metal Storm.
Its really solid stuff. Not only can it intercept incoming warheads, it also provides non-lethal options such as gas cannisters and pepper rounds. .......The firings included high explosive (HE) munitions; enhanced blast explosive (EBX) munitions and air burst munitions (ABM). Less than lethal (LTL) munitions development will be undertaken in the future.
The firings follow from a teaming agreement that was signed by both parties in September 2005 to co-develop, produce and market 40 mm munitions for Metal Storm weapon systems. The agreement also provides for a broader relationship in which ST Kinetics would market Metal Storm 40 mm weapons systems in selected markets.
The firings, which were completed last week at ST KineticsÂ’ Bukit Timah range in Singapore, validate the compatibility between Metal StormÂ’s stacked round technology and selected ST KineticsÂ’ commercially available warheads. -
imagine fighting insurgents in iraq with metal storm..
i think the collateral damage will be catastrophic -
imagine you are fighting in the holy city of Karbala.Originally posted by SingaporeMacross:imagine fighting insurgents in iraq with metal storm..
i think the collateral damage will be catastrophic
-
On the contrary. Fighting in Iraq needs a weapon like the metal storm.
FIrst of all, as part of the vehicles defense unit, it can intercept incoming RPG.
2ndly, someone is taking pot shots at ur unit from a crowd, u have some less-lethal option such as teargas to disperse the crowd in one of the 4 tubes of the metal storm unit.
Without a less lethal option, u have no choice but to sit their and take hits, or to mow the down the crowd with ur MGs becos of the shooter, should ur vehicle become immobilised. -
It is sad
Development of a Novel Anti-Landmine Shoe is not displayed in AA.The newly developed anti-landmine shoe consists of a foot plate, preferably six support legs connected to the foot plate by a joint, metal detectors in each support leg, circuitry, and one actuator (solenoid) per leg, which can constrain or release the leg. In the case of metal detection, the leg is released and passively gives way to the trigger protruding out of the ground. Thus, the force applied to the trigger is basically zero, and the load is distributed among the remaining 5 legs. The release time of the leg is 30 ms in the first prototype.

This is developed by NUS.Have u seen similiar product?Pl share here. -
can't they install something on the Stryker to spray tear gas? it doesn't count as chemical warfare does it?
-
This is going off topic now, but I think the nest thing to do is to spray them arse holes with coloured dye AND disperse some teargas as well.
The next day, rumble into town and arrest all those with red/blue/etc dye on their faces. If they stay at home, GREAT. They won't be causing trouble. -
the sattelite system looks familiar... isn't the new Signals battalion using it?
-
Topic title is kinda misleading. Most of these items are still on trial, or are prototypes. Or are for export only. Chances that the SAF will actually field even half of the fancy kit you saw are VERY SLIM!!!
Sorry for being a nay-sayer but that's the truth. DONT look at these items as 'SAF toys'. They're not. -
Just wish that ST Kinetics would hurry up and improve the SAR21.

Spore have made few UAV!!
second fr left=Fantail
made in spore ,Fantail---
under EMS
FanTail 5000 prototype flight set for MarchDr Tan Jiak Kwang, director of ST Aero's advanced systems department, said the move from a 3 kg platform to a 5.5 kg variant was an effort to improve capability and includes a larger engine.
2.I have not seen an UAV so small .have u??They are so big.
FanTail 5000 has a payload weight of 0.4 kg, a maximum level speed in horizontal position of 111 km/h and an endurance of 30 minutes in hover at an operating distance of 5 km.
Fantail 5000 as seen in AA2006.Bottom view.

some will doubt the new toys displayer in AA 2006 only CAD's products.
Some will think it will take few years before they are in full productions.
NO NO NO you can order them
if ST allow you
Happy shopping!! -

2.120mm ICM P138 bombThe 120 mm ICM P138 bomb delivers dual-purpose anti-personnel and anti-armour bomblets against targets in a designated area. Using a 'sideway' expulsion method to shatter the thin aluminium sleeve with the use of an expulsion charge system, it is far more effective than conventional HE mortar bombs.
