Marathon Targets offers smart targets for Live-Fire training. These autonomous, wheeled targets offer the ability to engage moving targets. Think of it as a four-in-one system. It can be used as a stationary target, pop-up target, left to right movers or autonomous moving targets.
The targets incorporate speakers and can move up to 12 mph on puncture proof tires. When properly engaged it works as a pop-up target and will go down which is programmable for the number of shots in the torso/head as well as how long it remains down. The most interesting aspect of the target is that when used in conjunction with one another, if one is successfully engaged, the others can be configured to scatter.
These will give our troops the vital trainging they need to take down terrorists on Hoverounds.
11 mph is about twice as fast as a Hoveround, and challenging for even an experienced shooter.
This system has potential as PART of a comprehensive training program that includes dry fire, simulators, simunitions and of course live fire.
11 MPH comes out to a 5:27 minute mile. That is probbably plenty fast enough to simulate the majority of the world’s population 90% of the time.
