Land & Sea Remote Weapon Stations

Innovation driven solutions to counter current and emerging threats

Taking advantage of its long-standing firearms expertise, the company started a decade ago to develop its first remote weapon station. This opened up a new business line that requires combined in-house expertise in firearms, integrated electronics, optoelectronics, software and power-drive technologies.

FN Herstal offers a complete family of remote weapon stations called deFNder® in order to meet today’s operational requirements. The deFNder® Remote Weapon Stations provide optimized remote firing capability day and night while keeping the operator completely under armor protection. The deFNder® family includes three models: the deFNder® Light, the deFNder® Medium and the Sea deFNder®, the latter specifically designed for naval applications.

Highly flexible, FN Herstal collaborates with End Users and/or OEMs to ensure the systems are properly integrated onto their land or naval vehicles, for both new and already in-service platforms.

FN HERSTAL ALSO INTEGRATES

  • Mounted Weapon Solutions for Land and Naval Applications
  • Crew Served Weapon Solutions for Airborne Applications
  • Fixed-Forward Firing Solutions for Airborne Applications
