An impressively easy to use light weight weapon system, fitted with a small caliber weapon, ideal for a variety of soft-skinned, light armored and mine protected vehicles.
The Self Defense Remotely Operated Weapon (SD-ROW) enables forces to engage hostile targets without exposing operators to harm during day and night. It is designed to need only one operator and the installation is extremely simple. Depending on the selected weapon configuration, it is effective against enemy targets over a 600 m range.
The SD-ROW can be used for first-order defense for logistic transport carriers, as well as on support and repair vehicles.

Intuitive Control Interface
For easy operation in a typical truck cabin, the SD-ROW operator manipulates the turret and fires the weapon using a simple Human Machine Interface (HMI), consisting of a unique control interface with an integrated display (similar to a game console). The HMI unit can be stowed and is portable, enabling the driver or co-driver to operate the SD-ROW. Real-time video received from the cameras on the weapon station is displayed to the operator overlaying information digitally. Fixed ballistic aiming lines are displayed to help the operator compensate for distance with the aiming point moving according to the selected distance.
The system has a typical 10 - 600 m application distance resulting in a very low trajectory for 7.62 mm and 5.56 mm calibre ammunition. Direct input buttons for fast left, front and right turret positioning enables the operator to rapidly acquire and engage targets without becoming disoriented.
