The device has been designed for various purposes from ship self-defence and anti-piracy to rescue and survival operations.
It is equipped with a zoom camera (daylight and/or IR), that allows the operator to follow and record the target actions and with an extremely powerful search light usable to illuminate the target or to disturb it when used in stroboscopic mode.
