It’s not the first time we take a peek at what the Howe brothers are coming up with. And we’re doing it because ever since the brainiacs partnered up to create new age military gear years ago, there were little to none new models that wouldn’t make our jaw drop. Their unmanned platform called Gremlin has the same effect on us.
So here we are, searching the midlands of the world wide internet when we stumble upon this video Howe & Howe just released. It’s the engineers' somewhat new model of an all terrain unmanned weapons platform seen going through the woods.
The RS-1 Gremlin is what the American defense contractor calls this little beast, but we’d rather call him The Series I Terminator, also known as T-1. Maybe the technology used to develop the Gremlin was not that advanced like the one in Arnold Schwarzenegger's movies, but it sure looks like the military weaponry is going that way.
Speaking of performance, let us take a quick look at what this killing machine is made of. Sure, its creators keep saying the RS1 platform (onto which most of their vehicles are built) addresses the dangers the first responders, military and civilian clients encounter, but Gremlin is something else.
Other than the fact it’s an unmanned, remote-controlled robot it can also be used for active shooter neutralization, sniper applications, riot control, or for use as a hostage resolution tool.
Designed with the ability for a lethal or non-lethal payload this package is supposed to be a versatile problem-solving tool. We don’t know about you guys, but we see a killing robot that is wearing a 50 caliber gun and it sure does look menacing.
