What can shoot down a drone in less than a second? Nammo programmable ammunition! Nammo is an international aerospace and defense company headquartered in Norway that employs over 2200 people. They have more than 30 site locations and offices in 14 countries.

They also have a mission…to keep soldiers safe from drones.

Nammo says the threat of drones attacking military troops may be a thing of the past and here is why.

Known as ‘programmable ammunition’, this new technology makes it possible for any larger gun to fire shells that can be programmed to explode with pinpoint accuracy, either before, above or inside a target.

Adaptable to several weapon platforms, including 40 mm grenade launchers, 30 mm guns, 120 mm tank ammunition and M-72 rockets, this makes the technology ideal for dealing with a number of different threats, including drones.

With the first versions already combat proven and in production, the technology offers three distinct benefits – low collateral damage, flexibility and ease of installation – together delivering a significant and reliable advantage to its users. – Nammo
