The MATBOCK ARD (Aquire Read Deploy) is a new 40mm weapon sight designed and manufactured in the USA. Made from anodized aluminum and mountable on either side or top rails, the sight has a digital LCD screen that outputs the range of 40mm projectiles given the angle of the weapon, the weapon system and the round used. Currently, the sight is configured for m203, 320, PGL6 weapon platforms as well as multiple rounds to include HE and non-lethal rounds. More weapons and rounds are to be brought online and each weapon sight can be updated with the new software. The simplicity of the sight is what makes it so adaptable in a firefight. Simply estimate the range of the enemy and raise the weapon to achieve that desired distance. After the first round impact is visualized, the operator can adjust fire to bring him/her on target very quickly.
The images below are a preproduction version and the production model is half the size and weight of those pictured. The unit runs off of a 123 battery and has 2 buttons to turn the unit on and off, cycle through the menus, and select the line desired. MATBOCK currently has multiple Gen 1 models available for testing with the Gen 2 models expected to come off the manufacturing line in just 8 weeks.
