With new Israeli gun, revolution in urban warfare is around the corner
TEL AVIV (AFP) Dec 15, 2003
A new weapons system was unveiled Monday in Israel which enables armed
forces to fire guns around corners and could revolutionize urban warfare
around the world.
The patented "Corner Shot" provides protection to the soldier by enabling
him to shoot down a street, through a window or a door frame with maximum
accuracy while keeping out of the line of fire.
The system consists of a rod and a mobile end section which can be adjusted
with any type of combat handgun and includes a camera allowing the soldier
to scan the targeted area and aim while maintaining cover.
Russian soldiers during the bloody World War II siege of Stalingrad first
had the idea of bending the barrels of their rifles to shoot around corners
and their Nazi opponents developed a purpose-built attachment fitted with a
periscope which they called the krummerlauf.
The Israeli-US developed Corner Shot is the latest improvement on a series
of devices invented over the past two decades by the FBI and the French army
which left at least the combatant's hand exposed.
"This system was put on the market three months ago and we have already sold
it to 15 countries," said Amos Golan, a retired lieutenant colonel who
served in Israeli anti-terror units and invented the Corner Shot.
The device costs between three and five thousand dollars and has been sold
to the US, Russian and several European armies, said Golan, also joint CEO
of Corner Shot holdings.
"I believe that the Corner Shot weapon system can be extremely beneficial in
the global war on terror," Golan said.
"It protects soldiers' lives and increases their chances of survival, while
drastically improving their ability to gather information and transmit the
combat scenario as well as pinpoint and engage targets out of their line of
sight."
During a media presentation which included a drill of an assault by an elite
unit on a building where "terrorists" were holed up, Golan said the device
was already being used on the ground but refused to say where.
