Protector: Data Sheet

The PROTECTOR Lite is a lightweight, low-cost remote weapon station designed for small arms fire on vehicles like the Stryker. It has extensive commonality with Kongsberg's M151 system, including identical user interfaces and components, to maximize reliability while reducing weight and costs. The default configuration operates weapons like the M240 or M249 without optional sensors, but can be customized with additions like thermal imaging cameras and laser rangefinders. At 74kg without upgrades, it is a versatile optional system that enables remotely controlled small arms protection from light vehicles.
