Gunslinger Package for Advanced Convoy Security (GunPACS)
Abstract
The GunPACS is a system built on the U.S. Marine Corps Medium Tactical Replacement Vehicle (MTRV) platform that provides enhanced situational awareness and cooperative engagement capabilities for ground and combat logistics elements in Afghanistan. This technology provides accurate targeting solutions to small unit and logistics convoy vehicle crews enabling them to effectively engage hostile shooters with remote weapons while remaining under armor. GunPACS utilizes 360-degree camera coverage, acoustic shot detection, and networked data fusion technology to determine shooter location information. This information is used by the operators to designate targets for the remote weapons mount to enable vehicle crews to engage hostiles while remaining under armor.
