Enforcer II is a state-of-the-art stabilised Remote Controlled Weapon System (RCWS). Enforcer II is based on the combat proven Enforcer RCWS with approx 500 systems in service with the British Army on wheeled/tracked vehicles and fixed installations.
The digital control architecture provides a stabilised weapons platform for 'fire on the move' capability supported by a video auto-tracker in both daylight and TI modes. Enforcer II can also be interfaced with a Battle Management System to enable 'slew to cue' functions.
The modular design allows optimised solutions to be generated for a variety of operational requirements. Enforcer II accepts a range of weapons that can be interchanged in the field including 7.62mm General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), 12.7mm Heavy Machine Gun (HMG) and 40mm Automatic Grenade Launcher (AGL).
