    I know that it's a picture of a model but I assume that's what it is.... Is the NS planning on going somewhere where a 2 way shooting match is envisaged?

      Not quite whats in the photo. Its armour plating that works similar to a folding screen you see ladies getting changed behind in the old B&W movies. You erect it around your pintle mount secondary armament in the absence of a solid bulwark.

      For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

        If my assumption is correct it just points out the absolute horseshit that's been spewed by UCC, CIT & the NS there's small fabrication workshops all over the country that could knock these together all the need is the steel. Imerc is meant to create jobs yes? That fancier model na grohmití posted isn't that much more work.

          Even naval UAVs that went to a IMERC company went to tender (open to correction)

          It wouldn't just be steel, could be Kevlar or similar or steel armour plate

            It is not that complicated Dev, the Blue sky thinkers in Imerc could help a company figure it out. The NS has enough mechanical engineers that they could do it in house ffs.

              Anything above 25k worth of work and it has to go out to tender......

                They could dress it up as a research project if they were interested, the mysteries of the tendering process will ensure that some non Irish company will get the job.

                      Type of steel, design, and heat treatment would want to be bang on, or the legal slugs will have a easy day in court if a round gets pass it or a scab flies of the back of the armour.
                      Might be safer to buy off the shelf.
