Skyborne’s UxV Weapon Payloads are designed to be integrated onto unmanned vehicles (UxV), like the Cerberus GLH UAV and other UxV systems (UAV, UGV, Q-UGV). These UxV weapon payloads provide a remote weapon system capability with standard ammunition from robotic agents.

Conventional weapons systems are designed for human-held operation (mechanical trigger, hand grip, stock etc.). Weaponised unmanned vehicles (UxV) are required to be electronically fired and to be as light as possible, and the CHAOS 12GA Shotgun and HAVOC 40mm Launcher are reimagined weapons, specifically designed for UxV applications.

Integration for UxV application

Weaponised UAVs, Q-UGVs, and UGVs


Revolver-style

For 12 gauge standard ammunition or 40mm grenade ammunition


Electronically fired

Solenoid operated firing pin


Servo operated round chamber

For round selection during operation


Lightweight

Removing mass from conventional weapon designed for human-operation


Ease of loading

Modular

Accessory rail for mounting

CHAOS 12 gauge Shotgun

The CHAOS 12 gauge shotgun is designed and manufactured in-house at Skyborne to integrate with the Cerberus UAV platform.

The 10-shot CHAOS 12GA is designed for UxV applications to allow electronic firing, minimise weight and allows operators to select rounds remotely.
