an Automatic Pointing System, which enables the gun to be unlimbered and in action in 30 seconds. APS is based on an inertial navigation system; operated via a touch screen. Looking for a role that suits you? Fire Support Teams (FSTs):
Our light role regiment is organised into Fire Support Teams (FSTs) to find the enemy and our gun batteries provide the firepower for the strike. Our dismounted FSTs find the enemy on the battlefield using lightweight lasers, MSTAR radars, thermal imaging and night vision equipment. Once the enemy location is identified, the FST coordinates guns, mortars, attack helicopters and fast jets to deliver a devastating strike. Command Post:
The Command Post is the “brains” of the unit. Taking information from the FSTs and calculating the gun data using an advanced Firing Computer, in order for the guns to strike the target with pinpoint accuracy. Guns:
Our three gun batteries equipped with Light Guns are highly mobile, accurate and pack a lethal punch. The 6 soldier Gun Detachments are the work horses of the unit, working as close knit teams to deliver fire in all weather conditions, day or night. Logistics:
