CRO Pharmaceuticals Announces the Launch of POLYSERP Next Generation Antivenoms

Wednesday, March 18th, 2020

POLYSERP™ offers freeze-dried unrefrigerated snake antivenoms designed specifically for the treatment of envenomation casualties in operational and austere medicine environments. POLYSERP™ antivenoms come in two broad-spectrum, regionally-specific formulations that are indicated for the treatment of neurotoxic, hemotoxic, and cytotoxic snake envenomations by all of the critical threat species in a given area without the need to identify the snake. 

Safe For Field Use

Traditional concerns with antivenoms arose from the high risk of serious reactions such as anaphylaxis, which occurred in as high as 75% of patients treated in some studies on older products. The rate of serious reactions to POLYSERP™ has been reduced to ? 1% thanks to a patented multi-step process of fragmentation, purification, and lyophilization resulting in a product that is free of preservatives and safe enough to administer by direct IV push in a low resource environment.

Unrefrigerated, Freeze-Dried, Field Stable

POLYSERP™ has been designed from the ground up to meet the needs of austere medical providers. Each vial contains a minimum of 500 LD50 neutralization potency against the most dangerous regional snakes. The increased potency allows field providers to treat severe envenomations at the point of injury, reducing the amount of space and weight, while adding an invaluable medical capability.

No Cold-Chain

Snakes are abundant in warm climates due to their cold-blooded physiology, but most antivenoms require constant refrigeration. POLYSERP™ is a next generation product that can be carried in a backpack for 6 months at temperatures exceeding 100º F without any loss of potency, making it the first product that is specifically designed for use in the environments where snakes are most common and disaster is most likely to strike.

BELL V-280 Valor Team Selected To Continue In Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft Competition

Tuesday, March 17th, 2020

U.S. Army awards Bell a contract for competitive demonstration and risk reduction work on a program engineered to deliver exceptional operational capabilities to warfighters at a sustainable cost

Fort Worth, Texas (March 16, 2019) – Bell Textron Inc., a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, has been selected as a project agreement holder for the competitive demonstration and risk reduction (CD&RR) effort as part of the U.S. Army’s Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) program. Under the agreement Bell will deliver a refined V-280 Valor design, with supporting technical documentation, that builds on the data captured during the more than two years and 170 hours of flight testing under the Joint Multi-Role Technology Demonstration (JMR TD) program to inform the FLRAA program of record. 

“Bell and Team Valor are excited to continue working on a system that has proven its ability to bring exceptional capabilities to warfighters,” said Mitch Snyder, president and CEO at Bell. “The JMR TD and V-280 show that rapid maturation of new technology is possible with a solid government-industry partnership fueled by our talented and innovative workforce. We look forward to the FLRAA competition.”

This contract follows the successful U.S. Army led JMR TD program. As part of that program, Bell managed collaboration with the twelve leading companies that make up Team Valor to enable rapid production, systems integration, and deliberate program schedule to validate the V-280’s flight capabilities and operational relevance. The V-280 achieved all program goals, demonstrating its speed by flying above 300 knots and demonstrating low speed agility attitude quickness per ADS-33F-PRF. These characteristics are important to inform FLRAA program requirements to ensure the program will help warfighters meet the challenges of future multi-domain fights.

“This is an important milestone in the history of Bell and Army aviation. We are honored to be part of it,” said Keith Flail, vice president, Advanced Vertical Lift Systems at Bell. “The next phase is an opportunity for this team to build on the success of the last six years and continue to bring the proof that we can provide transformative capabilities to our Army in line with their stated goal of 2030.”

The V-280 Valor was developed in support of the government Future Vertical Lift (FVL) program, the Army’s number three modernization priority area. The FLRAA program is meant to produce a medium-lift utility rotorcraft replacement with transformational speed, power, and maneuverability, at a sustainable cost, to active duty and reserve aviation units.

Ergonomic Performance Upgrades for AICS Rifle Systems By Anarchy Outdoors

Monday, March 16th, 2020

North Logan, UT- Anarchy Outdoors, a leading industry innovator and supplier of precision rifle components and other high-performance firearms accessories, has introduced significant ergonomic upgrades for select Accuracy International rifle systems.  Designed in partnership with Accuracy Obsession, these precision-oriented upgrades include a Thumb Rest for a proper precision rifle grip, an improved Adjustable Cheek Piece for better eye-to-scope alignment and a Spigot Mount for superior bipod attachment.

A thumb rest is critical for a proper grip when shooting a precision rifle.  Most shooters in the precision rifle discipline do not curl their thumb around the grip in the traditional manner but position it on the trigger finger side of the grip.  This helps eliminate torque while squeezing the trigger and keeps the rifle on target.  The Anarchy Outdoors Thumb Rest provides an ergonomic and repeatable-position support on the strong side of the grip for the thumb to rest on, providing much better hand alignment and consistent trigger pull.  The Thumb Rests are manufactured from composite Nylon 12 material, resulting in a strong, thin, and perfectly textured interface.  Available in black with an MSRP of $39.99 Thumb Rests are compatible with select versions of the “AT” and “AX” rifle systems.  Please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-thumb-rest for complete model compatibility.

The Anarchy Outdoors Adjustable Cheek Piece is thinner and can be set lower than the factory version to allow mounting the rifle’s scope lower to the bore axis and still provide better and more comfortable eye alignment.  This minimizes the effect of parallax and the greater range of adjustment allows setting the comb height for maximum comfort while in the shooting position.  Made from composite Nylon 11, the installation only takes minutes using a basic Allen wrench.  The Adjustable Cheek Piece fits the factory AX buttstock and the AX-AICS R700 Chassis and is now available with an MSRP of $59.99.  Please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-ax-aics-cheek-piece-low

 

The new Spigot Mount from Anarchy Outdoors provides an upgraded bipod attachment point for select Accuracy International AE, AT and AW rifle systems including the AWM and AW50.  Models are available for bipods that attach to either Picatinny or Arca Swiss type rails.  Rather than mount the bipod to the bottom of the stock, the Spigot Mount positions the bipod closer to the bore axis and further toward the muzzle by extending out from the front of the stock rather than the bottom.  This results in greater stability and accuracy.  All versions of the Spigot Mount are machined from a single piece of 6061-T6 Aluminum and are Type-III hard coat anodized black.  This one-piece bipod mount replaces the Accuracy International factory bipod “block” held within the square tube forend to provide the user a rigid bipod attachment point.
User installation is easy. It requires a 5/16” roll pin punch, 2.5mm Allen Key, 3mm Allen Key, and blue Loctite.  The Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mounts have an MSRP of $119.99.  For more information please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-spigot-mount

INVISIO has received another order for communication equipment from the U.S. Army’s Security Force Assistance Brigades (SFAB). The order is valued at approximately SEK 36 million. Deliveries are expected to take place in the second quarter 2020.

Confidence in the INVISIO systems continues to grow with the additional Army SFAB units utilizing the INVISIO kits. These specialized units have specific tactical communication needs with many different applications/mission sets and INVISIO’s solutions provide them with multiple capabilities in a variety of configurations. The situational awareness provided under operational tactical communications coupled with superior hearing protection is crucial to the soldiers’ ability to perform their tasks successfully under critical conditions.

The order, which is valued at approximately SEK 36 million, is an important reference in the ongoing global modernization of communications equipment in the military and defense sectors as well as in policing and security.

“We are very proud that the US Army continues to provide more SFAB units with our communications systems. It shows that they have confidence in INVISIO and that our offer meets the communication needs of users in the most critical environments. The order is an important reference in the continued processing of the US market,” says Lars Højgård Hansen, CEO of INVISIO.

The Security Force Assistance Brigades are specialized units whose core mission is to conduct advise-and-assist operations with allied and partner nations. Soldiers in SFABs are highly trained and will help brigade combat teams build readiness by freeing them from advisory missions.
