Lock-And-Launch Technology on a Sniper Rifle - Tech Article 12/6


     TrackingPoint certainly lives up to their name as a company. Basically, they are a precision guided rifle development company that operates right out of Austin, Texas, and they have come up with a new kind of breakthrough technology which is said to have transferred the wonders of jet fighter lock-and-launch technology onto a combat rifle. That is clearly something amazing to consider, no? We are talking about the average shooter actually being capable of achieving sniper-level accuracy, now how about that? TrackingPoint's Intelligent Digital Tracking Scopes will enable an unskilled shooter to hit long-range targets in an accurate manner. The shooter will first “tag” a target, picking out a desired impact point on the target’s surface. The electronic display will then mark that spot with a red dot, and it will remain fixed on the target even as the direction of the rifle changes.
