Gunfire Detection

Vehicle equiped with GDS

This passive, acoustic-based security system can detect and locate sniper or gunshot activity that occurs outside of the safety perimeter, allowing raid teams to quickly respond to catch the attackers. GDS is ideal for asset and force protection, providing automatic 360-degree coverage and multi-computer compatibility. One unit in Iraq received the GDS and soon found out how valuable it was. Within two hours of emplacing the device, the unit received sniper fire. According to a LTC assigned to the 116th Brigade Combat Team, source data received from GDS enabled the battalion to initiate a 2-platoon raid that resulted in two individuals being detained.
