By

Source: AM General

AM General’s new Humvee Saber Blade Edition is something out of a sci-fi movie. In response to lessons learned in Ukraine which have demonstrated the increasing importance of drones, whether for targeting or for reconnaissance missions, the Humvee Saber Blade has been equipped with the tools to succeed. These include features such as enhanced survivability, off-road mobility, versatile configurations (2, 4, and 6 passenger variants), loitering munitions, vehicle protection, fire support, and counter UAS.  The Saber Blade will be equipped with AeroVironment’s Switchblade 300 and Switchblade 600 loitering munitions. It will also carry the Hornet Air Guard Remote Controlled Weapon System (RCWS) with a Counter-UAS solution by Hornet.

The HUMVEE Saber Blade edition integrates AeroVironment’s Switchblade® loitering missiles and a Hornet Air Guard Remote Controlled Weapon System (RCWS) with Counter-UAS solution by Hornet. The loitering munitions on the HUMVEE Saber Blade Edition include the Switchblade 300 and Switchblade 600 that provide rapidly deployable, loitering precision strike missiles for use against non-line-of-sight targets. The Hornet Air Guard offers anti-drone detection & neutralization capabilities to the Hornet RCWS which provides surveillance, fire, and self-protection thanks the use of air-burst ammunition and the addition of an independent drone detection ring.

“The current conflicts have demonstrated the increasing importance of drones, whether to target vehicles or for reconnaissance missions. Being able to detect and defeat such threats while maintaining the vehicle’s primary protective capacity is the ultimate capability for a Remote-Control Weapon Station. That’s Hornet Air Guard ambition,” explains Jean Boy, Managing Director of Hornet.
