Rheinmetall displays Vingmate FCS an aiming device and fire control computer at Milipol 2013 2311138.

Vingmate consists of an aiming device and fire control computer together with a combined tripod and gun cradle suitable for various 40mm automatic grenade launchers as well as .50 cal. machine guns. Because the fire control computer can be programmed with up to ten firing tables, the Vingmate system’s effector can be quickly switched without having to readjust the particular weapon being used. The Canadian armed forces have procured a variant of the Vingmate system for their Close Area Support Weapon (CASW).

Also on hand are the Vingmate MultiRay (Vingmate MR), a fire control unit and aiming device, and the friend-or-foe Dismounted Soldier Identification Device/DSID. The new Vingmate MR is substantially more compact and lighter than its FeLVis forerunner, and is suitable for low- and medium-velocity 40mm ammunition including air burst rounds. It features a laser rangefinder, an integral ABM programming unit, is able to detect if the weapon is at an incline, and also calculates the necessary lead. In addition, it is equipped with a laser pointer, an IR laser pointer

The Vingmate FCS is mounted on soft-mount cradles, assuring top performance. The weapon system can either be mounted on a vehicle or placed on a tripod for dismounted operations. It is deployable in all types of climatic and weather conditions, including snow, desert, mountain and jungle environments, and is also suitable for operations in urban terrain.
