Overview

Moving Infantry Target - Deployable

This system provides deployed troops with training facilities in out of area missions.

The highly flexible Deployable MIT displays moving infantry targets. Various speed and movement of the mechanism ensure diversified training scenarios. The modular concept allows dynamic and scaleable training and makes this product outstanding within the training industry. Representing moving threads, this MIT vigorously lifts target silhouettes up to 5 kg and moves with speeds up to 30 kph.

Giving the choice of temporary and permanent installation, the weather resistant deployable MIT can be used outdoor and indoor. It impresses by virtue of its excellent acceleration, remotely adjustable speed, and its swiftly modifiable setup.

Features

General Features

Giving the choice of temporary and permanent installation the weather resistant deployable MIT can be used out- and indoor. It impresses by virtue of its excellent acceleration, remotely adjustable speed, and its swiftly modifiable setup. As an option a second infantry lifter can be offered to further increase flexibility in the training scenario. Typically it is used on combined training ranges but can serve on regular military shooting ranges demanding high flexibility, too.

  Realistic Training Environment

  Several add-ons and accessories are available for TTS target mechanisms to increase training realism and stress.
  

  Enemy fire simulators and hit indicators are added to the target appliances and are used to give a more realistic training environment. The simulators make use of standard pyrotechnic ammunition or are non -pyrotechnic simulators, increasing the safety of the range personnel while reducing the life cycle costs. As more and more modern weapon systems are equipped with infrared night visors, all our target appliances can be equipped with thermal target heating systems, which provide a thermal image on the target that can be clearly identified.

  This TTS Target appliance offers various movements and/or speeds to ensure diversified training scenarios and to avoid familiarization effects. For a highly flexible range layout on shooting ranges most TTS target equipment is designed in a way that its location can be altered without the need of infrastructure adaptations. If required our Equipment will be delivered meeting these requirements:

  • Man-portable
  • Powered by Batteries or Generator
  • Radio remote controlled

• Pop Up or Lifting Mode

  Pop Up or Lifting Mode

  The target raises out of a cover and lowers.
  

  

  Pop Up Mode - Raised

  This conventional mode allows the presentation of a target raising out of a cover and lowering to hide behind a drawback.
  

• Friend & Foe Mode

  Friend & Foe Mode

  Alternative presentation of a friend or a foe target is possible.
  

  

  SIT Swiveling

  This mode allows the alternative presentation of a friend or a foe target; the targets' side view represents the neutral position since the target board appears to be invisible. Typical applications are pistol shooting and special forces training.
  

• Shearing or Scissors Mode

  Shearing or Scissors Mode

  The silhouette can be sheared to the left or to the right
  

  

  SIT Scissoring

  This mode allows the presentation of a target spying around a corner. It can be used instead of the lifting mode when not enough space is available.
  

• Moving Infantry Mode

  Moving Infantry Mode

  This mode allows the presentation of a walking or running target. Various speeds allow realistic target behavior.

Qualitative Features

Electro gear, gear wheels and electronics are protected in a watertight powder coated cast aluminum housing for reliable and long life operation. The unique, stabile rail system allows high speeds and yet safe operation even in tough weather conditions.

Economical Features

Deployable targetry solutions can be swiftly moved from one location to another. Hence ranges can now be installed in regions where new equipment was typically purchased and for economical reasons left behind .

Ergonomical Features

The unique, stabile rail system allows high speeds and yet safe operation even in tough weather conditions.

Components

• Target Cube

  Target Cube

  The target mechanism`s basic component assures swift movements of targets.
  

  

  Theissen cube

  The Target Cube is lifting any infantry target silhouette precisely and vigorously to simulate a suddenly appearing and disappearing infantry target. It can be programmed to create lifting, slashing, turning or swiveling movements.
  

  The Target Cube’s world-patented 4 in 1-technology makes this product also economical. This principle avoids extra costs for storage of spare parts, which would be needed if separate devices for the four purposes would be used. Likewise, less training is required causing a significant reduction of maintenance costs.

  The Target Cube allows multiple target movements. It can be fixed with a stainless steel clamp in two different positions allowing the following moves:

  • Lifting (raising/lowering)
  • Shearing (shearing up/shearing down)
  • Slashing (swinging in/swinging out/neutral)
  • Turning or Swiveling (friend/foe/neutral)

  With an Add-On the Target Cube© can even be swiftly modified to allow a sliding target presentation.

  The Target Cube is also referred to as SAPU Würfel, Theissen-Cube.

• Target Controller

  Target Controller

  Most target mechanisms are supplied with a lightweight Target Controller.
  

  

  Target Controller

  The controller's housing is made from powder coated, high-grade aluminum. To avoid internal corrosion and to maintain a consistent and optimal performance under all environmental conditions, from equator to the poles, the housing is sealed with a premium sealant. The configurable settings are addressing the complexity of military training and allows a variety of custom operating settings:

  • Number of hits to drop the target
  • Display time, for which the target shall be shown
  • Delay time, after which the target will be raised again automatically
  • Sensitivity of hit sensor
  • Target illumination (optional)
  • Brightness of the illumination (optional)
  • Target heating system (optional)

• Piezo Hit Indication

  Piezo Hit Indication

  TTS Target equipment is supplied with a remotely adjustable Piezo Hit Indication.
  

  

  Piezzo Hit Indicator

  The dependable TTS Piezo Hit Indication has a reliability of hit recording better than 98% for almost all calibers. Hits are reported back to the controller. To obtain perfect results the sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted remotely by the controller. In the recordable range is live fire ammunition as well as paint ball ammunition.

• Military grade connectors

  Military grade connectors

  TTS uses only 100% scoop proof, military grade connectors.
  

  

  Military Grade Connectors

  TTS uses only 100% scoop proof, hermetic connectors made from high strength aluminum shells and qualified to specifications MIL-DTL-38999, EN 3645 and JN 1034. The olive drab cadmium over nickel shell plating provides even salt spray corrosion protection. The threaded coupling with self-locking ensures anti-vibration integrity.
