Product Name: ADW – Area Defence Weapon
Manufacturer Name: Rheinmetall AG
Product Description: The ADW is based on combined arms warfare doctrine to support BLOCK, TURN, DISRUPT or FIX the enemy. It is an antitank weapon system that combines active and passive sensors both for area surveillance, target classification, and attack. Together with its bi-directional communication, sensor data is shared and soldiers can effectively change the mode of operations of the ADW. This allows multiple ADW to create smart obstacles by having them armed or disarmed on command and have them become an active asset within fast-paced Multi Domain Operations. Upon detection of a verified target within its Zone of Authority, the ADW launches a SMArt155 sub-munition, executing a top attack that effectively destroys even heavy tracked vehicles within a radius >100m.
