The US Army’s New Robot Dog Armed with Sniper Rifle
Defence News
The US Army’s New Robot Dog Armed with Sniper Rifle The United States military may soon receive a dog-like quadruped robot armed with a sniper rifle. Ghost Robotics, a Philadelphia-based business specializing on legged robotics, created "Vision 60," a robo-dog. We previously discovered Vision 60 robots in military duty during a 2020 US Air Force drill at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada. The devices assisted in establishing a security perimeter there. Air bases, which sometimes require thousands of feet of runway, may be difficult to police successfully, and robo-dogs make it possible to rely on fewer humans for the job. This new, armed Vision 60 is outfitted with the Special Purpose Unmanned Rifle. It's a ten-shot rifle chambered in 6.5-millimeter Creedmoor—a new medium-caliber, high-velocity, long-range precision round. The Creedmoor is recognized in shooting circles for having a relatively flat ballistic trajectory, making it more of a "hit-what-you-see" round at greater ranges than earlier cartridges like the.308 Winchester. Special Purpose Unmanned Rifle is controlled by the robot's human controller; a 30X electro-optical thermal sight aids in the weapon's target acquisition and targeting. Vision 60 has the ability to operate remotely or autonomously. #usmilitary #usarmy #militarytechnology
