571-C Remote Automated Sentry System
USER
NOTES: "The UA 571-C Robot Sentry is an automated
point defence system. It consists of a 7.62 mm machinegun mounted in an
automated servo system with IR, motion and ambient light sensors for target
acquisition. The entire package is armoured (SP 20, SDP 30) and mounted
on a sturdy tripod (Leg SP 20, SDP 15). The weapon cannot be detached from
its base or used by hand. Each weapon comes with a control terminal microwave-linked
to its Sentry gun (can be placed up to 1000 metres away from the Sentry(which
can be extended) .The system is sophisticated and can be set to search
based on a target's visual and/or thermal profile or'auto-remote', using
the system's built in IFF transponder and stutter-chipping, allowing it
to avoid firing on a target wearing a personal data transmitter or M10
helmet IFF transponder with the right IFF code (this may be deactivated
at the operator's command). Because the UA 571-C lacks a human's judgement,
clearance of the ranking officer is required by law (although not needed)
to use the system."
