New Paladin Hoodie From Prometheus Design Werx

Wednesday, October 11th, 2023

Made in USA, Full Zip, Technical Soft-Shell Hoodie Designed for Adventure, Built to Last

The SPD Paladin Hoodie is built to perform, built to last, built in the USA. A rugged, technical, soft-shell hoodie designed for adventurous pursuits in cool to cold weather and made for those who are more than just capable, speak softly, carry big sticks and the self-reliant who can move with confidence in wild to dangerous places. The Paladin Hoodie has ample freedom of movement by virtue of its 4-way stretch materials, blocks wind, is highly breathable, and shrugs off snow, damp, and drizzle. Made with traditional industrial sewing techniques and fully stitched construction, featuring our Expedition Cloth shell exterior, and fully lined with our Guide Cloth, this hoodie has got you covered. Cut to fit over moderate layers when desired for variable temperatures and features strategically placed pockets for generous storage of your EDC tools.

The Paladin Hoodie is made under Prometheus Design Werx’s sub-label Special Projects Division, and a part of their CORE-Line. Available in Universal Field Gray and All Terrain Brown.

The Design and R&D Team at PDW states:

“The Paladin Hoodie is something of a legacy style from our company Founder and Chief Designer, where his early apparel designs were often fielded by those who found themselves in dangerous places all over the globe. Purpose driven, practical, useful, versatile. Whether you’re running over washboard in a Hilux, stuck in a hurricane seat, or horse packing through Charyn Canyon, the Paladin Hoodie is your one grab-n-go, do-it-all cool-cold weather jacket. Like all of our apparel, we follow our own Long Life Apparel ethos where we design and produce our apparel to last far beyond the typical industry life cycle standards and do not subscribe to ‘fast fashion’ or disposable consumerism.”

The SPD Paladin Hoodie will be available for purchase for $309.00 via their website, prometheusdesignwerx.com on Wednesday 11OCT23 at noon PST.

AUSA 23 – SIG Showcases Robotic Systems

Tuesday, October 10th, 2023

Producer of the US Army’s Modular Handgun System and Next Generation Weapons SIG SAUER displayed their new robotic systems at the AUSA Annual Meeting this week.

The system consists of three main components: Mule robot, Pitbull Remote Weapon Station, and NG3 ~~Mingun~~ Gatling Gun.

Chambered in 338 Norma Mag, the NG3 ~~Minigun~~ Gatling Gun is from Stone Horse, LLC, a Richmond-based manufacturer. It features four rotating barrels and offers a 2000 rounds-per-minute rate of fire. However, this can be tuned to avoid certain frequencies for aviation applications. The MG3 weighs in at 50 lbs with electrical box.

The Mule and Pitbull are products of General Robotics which was purchased last year by SIG SAUER. We’ve seen Pitbull in the past, which debuted with SIG during the defense products demonstration at this year’s SHOT Show range.

Pitbull weights 85 kg dry and can be configured with a wide variety of weapons and mounted to vehicles, robots and even in static applications as well as on a tripod.

This is the first time we have seen Mule. Equipped with band tracks, it weights 100 lbs with batteries and can be remotely operated or programmed to transit a predetermined route. Additional equipment is available to provide the Mule autonomous capability to assess and negotiate terrain.

SIG’s booth had a couple of other Easter eggs like this pistol equipped quadcopter also from their General Robotics division.

Editor’s Note: I called the Next Generation 3 a “Minigun” because that’s technically what it is, but the M134 is commonly known as a Minigun and this isn’t an M134.
