Rifle Scopes DARPA One-Shot Program

Re: DARPA One-Shot Program

I don't know how they are going to be able to read different wind zones off the reflection, but they are DARPA.
 
Re: DARPA One-Shot Program

Kinda makes you want to ask what the hoopla about Phase 1 is all about.

I do hope they figure out how to execute HUD technology within the sniper scope--lots of good capabilities there to include adding BFT, adjusting reticle to conditions/ammo, etc.

They already have done some of what you're asking. Read page 3-4 of this PDF to see what ha...for in Phase 2E
 
Re: DARPA One-Shot Program

Wow, what a development that would be! I could totally see smart bullets in the very near future, especially given the 50 cal. platform gives plenty of bullet space for high tech electronics.

I hope the US is smart enough not to sell this technology (if achieved) to other countries, allied or not.

Maybe one will end up on the bash prize table.
 
Re: DARPA One-Shot Program

I can see in the near future there will be very little skill involved.

Wow! Only 7 million for 15 units. I think they have them cheaper at Big lots.
