IEE Exhibiting Line of Ruggedized Displays at AUSA 2016
Monday, September 26th, 201612.1-inch LAV Display and 6”x6” Avionics MFD Featured
September 2016, Van Nuys, CA—IEE, manufacturer of enhanced displays for military applications, will be exhibiting at the AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition, Oct 3-5th in Washington DC. IEE will be showcasing an array of ruggedized displays including hand-held devices, ground vehicle Control Display Units (CDUs), and avionics Multi Function Displays (MFDs).
One of the highlights will be a recently introduced 12.1-inch Smart-Touch CDU designed for Light-Armored Vehicles (LAV’s). This display features low latency video processing, expandable COTS open architecture, and Gigabit Ethernet networked processing. Designed to support a wide range of current and future Vetronics architectures including the US Army VICTORY Architecture and NATO Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA).
In addition, IEE will be demonstrating an exceptional 6”x6” MFD display. Targeted first for the F-15 Multi-Purpose Display, this product provides a Form, Fit, Function, Interface (F3I) direct replacement for previously fielded Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) technology displays. With dramatically improved reliability, this AMLCD display and LED backlight, provide improved functionality with reduced weight, power, and overall operating costs. Designed for modularity and support for expansion to use open standard interfaces, this display will provide full backward compatibility while providing a platform to integrate the latest in video and processing features; such as: digital video (DVI, SMPTE-292), fiber video (ARINC-818), and networked architectures (GigE-Vision).
“The use of networked open architecture standards and modularity is at the heart of obtaining the objectives of interoperability and optimization of size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C),” said Steve Motter, Vice President of Business Development for IEE. “We excel in creating cost-efficient integrated display solutions for our customers. By designing in modularity and open standards, we pave the way for low-cost future technology insertions and capability expansions, while efficiently providing the backward compatibility required to extend the life of existing weapon platforms.”

Gore Military Technical Solutions At AUSA 2016
Thursday, September 22nd, 2016ELKTON, MD, September 21, 2016 — Showcasing the functionality of ePTFE technology, W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. (Gore) will be featuring products from both GORE® Military Fabrics and GORE® Cables and Materials at 2016 AUSA, October 3-5, Washington, D.C., Booth 2733.
Gore offers technical solutions for military personnel and the aircraft and ground vehicles that protect them. The unique properties of ePTFE (expanded polytetrafluoroethylene) coupled with Gore’s innovation make products such as GORE-TEX® Fabric and high data rate cables industry-leading technologies.
Gore will be featuring the following GORE® Military Fabrics technologies: GORE® Katana Fabric — durably fast drying, comfortable, mechanically-strong fabrics for hot and humid environments; and Stretch GORE-TEX® Fabric — the only flexible-fit WWB (waterproof / windproof / breathable) military jacket available.
The GORE® Military Fabrics group will also be introducing its new blog at news.goremilitary.com — developed to be an informational and technical resource for the military textile market.
Gore will also showcase its full portfolio of GORE® Cables and Materials engineered to perform reliably for the life of the aircraft and land vehicle. Products that will be highlighted include small, lightweight high data rate cables; durable aircraft sealants; and outstanding shielding materials.
Throughout the expo, Gore will conduct live demonstrations using the Cable Installation Simulator they developed to replicate the conditions an assembly experiences while being routed during installation in an aircraft. Gore specialists will route GORE-FLIGHT™ Microwave Assemblies through the simulator and evaluate performance using GORE® PHASEFLEX® Microwave/RF Test Assemblies.
The live demo schedule (Booth 2733) is as follows:
Tuesday, Oct 4, May 20, 10:00 AM & 1:00 PM

The SX-1 Modular Tactical Rifle from Ritter & Stark Debuts at AUSA 2016
Friday, September 9th, 2016
Feistritz, Austria (September 8, 2016) – Ritter & Stark, an Austrian-based firearms design and manufacturing company, will be exhibiting their initial product launch of the SX-1 Modular Tactical Rifle (MTR) at the AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in Washington D.C., Oct. 3 – 5, 2016.
Ritter & Stark was formed in 2015 in an area of Austria well-known for introducing to the world some of the most innovative firearm systems ever produced. Bringing together highly skilled engineers, talented firearm designers, technologically advanced R&D and state-of-the-art manufacturing, Ritter & Stark developed a modular rifle platform designed to allow the user to customize it to be mission specific. The SX-1 Modular Tactical Rifle can be quickly and easily interchanged between a .308 Win., .300 Win Magnum and a .338 Lapua Magnum. The SX-1 allows operators to incorporate aftermarket magazines and drop-in upgrades with AR15/M16/M4 pistol grips and buttstocks that will fit the original Ritter & Stark folding buttstock mechanism.
Multiple features on the SX-1 MTR make this the ultimate precision rifle for serious shooters. The MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail is installed directly on the barrel, allowing barrel interchangeability with pre-set scopes for no shift of impact when changing calibers. Easily and quickly done in the field, the patented caliber conversion system allows the barrel to be precisely positioned in the machined aluminum receiver with a greater area of contact allowing for more stability. The bolt is locked directly into the barrel breech giving the SX-1 unprecedented accuracy, shot after shot.
The SX-1 MTR barrel is processed in a unique CNC-controlled electrochemical machine. The process greatly limits any mechanical stress or the transmission of thermal effects on the barrel while ensuring a uniform match-grade barrel in either fluted or bull-barrel configuration. Unlike other precision rifles, no matter the caliber, our barrels are guaranteed to at least 5,000 rounds for .308Win and .338LM, and 2,000 rounds for .300WM before noticing any degradation in accuracy. For the shooter, this means that every rifle we manufacture can achieve 0.5 MOA 3--round groups or better with factory match grade ammunition.
Customization is key for military, law enforcement and precision long-range shooters as environments constantly change. The SX-1 MTR’s adaptability to fit the operator, as well as the scenario, is demonstrated in its adjustable cheekpiece, recoil pad, left/right folding capability of the buttstock and its acceptance of different aftermarket magazines, triggers and pistol grips. The SX-1 MTR is also compatible with other manufacturers’ AR-10 magazines in the standard configuration.
The SX-1 MTR is the rifle of the future. It combines the newest manufacturing processes with the most technologically advanced materials and is designed by some of the world’s most highly skilled firearms engineers. Every SX-1 MTR is put through the most rigorous testing available before it’s allowed out the door.
