The XM1100 Scorpion (previously known as the Intelligent Munitions System or IMS) is a smart system, which allows controlled and safe use of munitions in the battlefield and prevents unwanted munitions from being buried and forgotten.

It is remotely operated and can be left in the field on an automatic mode or turned off to allow friendly vehicles to pass through the area. Each module contains 4 anti-vehicle smart munitions that are fired into the air and release a guided warhead that will descend vertically on the target.

The exhibit also highlights unmanned aircraft, including the proven Shadow and Aerosonde platforms, complemented by a range of maritime capabilities from the agile Common Unmanned Surface Vessel to the next-generation Ship-to-Shore Connector amphibious landing craft, as well as flexible and rugged MicroObserver Unattended Ground Sensors.
