HUNTSVILLE, Ala.\u00a0\u2014 The US Army is offering an up-close view here of its Containerized Weapon System and Firefly 360 threat detection system as part of the AUSA Global Force Symposium and Exhibition. In a nutshell, the equipment works together to detect direction of enemy fire and\u00a0then return fire.\u00a0What you need to know:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* The CWS can be operated from up to 1,000 meters away, allowing soldiers to seek a safer place to fire back at the enemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* An\u00a0electric mast can be\u00a0equipped with the\u00a0Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station, or CROWS, technology. Optional weaponry includes the M2, MK19, M240, M249, M134 and a Javelin missile(which can provide 360 degrees of protection).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* The system is designed to the dimensions of a standardized\u00a0shipping container, which helps with storage and movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*\u00a0Two soldiers can set up the system in less than 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* CWS is already in use in Afghanistan and the Army says its operating in other locations as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* A Situational Awareness computer helps provide ISR. Digital terrain maps are also used for target location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* The Firefly 360 uses six microphones and other detection technology to locate enemy fire. It can also specify whether it’s small arms, heavy machine gun or rocket\/mortar fire. It can also\u00a0calculate the necessary targeting information so CWS can quickly strike back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
