Boomerang Warrior-X is smaller, light weight, and integrated with tactical vests

British soldiers now have a new device which can pinpoint the exact position of enemy snipers 1,000 yards away. The device Raytheon’s Boomerang Warrior-X is a cost-effective compact dismounted shooter detection system.

The detector’s powerful acoustic processing technology evaluates the enemy position by determining the target’s coordinates on a small screen with an arrow indicator. Simultaneously, it bleeps a warning into a headset connected to the device. The small square-shaped detector will also allow Joint Tactical Air Controllers to forward exact locations of the enemy to fighter pilots for an air strike.

At only 12 ounces, the Warrior-X system automatically alerts the individual of hostile small arms fire and accurately localises the shooter’s position, allowing for a rapid, informed, and coordinated response. The system works in both urban and mountainous terrain, without the need for user input. Its ability to quickly and reliably identify the location of enemy firing locations provides the intelligence necessary to minimise threats and avoid human casualties.
