Pop-up targets – LIT

– The Light Infantry Target (LIT) – lightweight portable pop-up target system for individual or unit combat training.

The LIT is a target mechanism designed specifically for infantry target training. The target is battery powered and operates via a radio link up to 9km.

The LIT can be controlled manually or with pre-programmed scenarios from the remote control or a tablet.

In order to build up various scenarios and making the training as real as possible the system can be equipped with multiple accessories such as location of miss and hit (LOMAH), battle effects (BES), enemy fire simulator, target enhanced overlays, etc.

General specifications

Pop-up targets – SIT

– Stationary Infantry Target (SIT) – Portable target for combat training against infantry- or armored opponents.

General specifications

Acoustic measurement – LOMAH

– Location of Miss and Hit (LOMAH) – High-accuracy system for detecting incoming projectiles and calculating the location of hits and misses.

The LOMAH provides automatic location and plotting of misses and hits by detecting the presence of supersonic rounds passing over the array of acoustic sensors thus making possible to build realistic scenarios.

Besides providing the hit and miss data and scoring, the LOMAH makes a target system act accordingly depending on where the target is hit or missed, for example making the target “take cover” when detecting projectiles in proximity of the target even if the target is not hit and go up again.

Open API and connects with a variety of pop-up targets.
Provides information on how training units performed in terms of targeting.
Enables realistic target scenarios.
Can be mounted on all W5 Solutions’ pop-up targets
3D AI technology making the LOMAH cost effective and high accuracy in a compact format.

General specifications

Target hit area: 1400x2400 mm (WxH).
Near miss area: 4000x3000 mm (WxH).
Operating temperature: -30ºC to +50ºC.
Detection rate: >1000 RPM.
Detecting reliability: >95% with a firing rate of at least 900 rounds/min.

Armor target training

Training for armor targets poses challenges as anti-tank weapons are technically advanced and expensive. Armor target training focuses on training both the gunner and the crew.

Our products, with their flexible setup, aim to challenge the training crew, encouraging improvement and avoiding static scenarios to make the units improve.
