DroneShield Ltd (ASX:DRO) Releases DroneGun Tactical Product


(MENAFN- ABN Newswire) Sydney, Jan 31, 2018 AEST (ABN Newswire) - DroneShield Ltd () () ("DroneShield" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the release of its DroneGun Tactical(TM) product, available for purchase from today to qualified end-users, where lawful (see Note below).

The release of DroneGun Tactical(TM) continues to establish DroneShield's lead in the counterdrone space, following on the release of DroneGun MKII(TM) in late 2017.

The product was designed following comprehensive international military end-user trials, with a number of key features, including:

- No backpack - the product is entirely self contained within the rifle body, whilst maintaining light weight and long effective range (over 1km).

- Addition of 433Mhz and 915Mhz frequencies, to ensure complete effectiveness across drone models.

- Ergonomic body and controls.

- Further alignment with standard military specifications, including standardised NATO military battery power.
