Army-Produced Handheld Ballistic Computer Deployed

The Army Research Analysis Projection & Development Branch (RAP&D Br), responsible and dedicated to build indigenous technological capabilities that suit the needs of the Sri Lanka Army, recently deployed its first ever Handheld Ballistic Computer, produced by the Sri Lanka Army under the project ‘Sri Mana’.

This will empower the use of gun computing applications to improve gunnery skills and increase efficiency of gun positions for accurate and guaranteed indirect fire targets. Handheld Ballistic Computer could also integrate different weapon types or capabilities in the same fire unit, in the same location and in the same fire mission to create unparalleled flexibility and provide simultaneously the capability to engage targets effectively with single weapon type or multiple weapon types.

Sri Lanka Army expects to launch its envisioned plans to initiate the first step towards acquiring network-centric warfare capabilities by inducting this computerized command and control system to integrate its artillery weapon operations in future. Brigadier N.P Akuranthilake, Director RAP&D Branch, Brigadier M.P Karunaratne, Artillery Brigade Commander, Colonel S.D Udayasena, Principal Investigator of the project and Lieutenant Colonel C Tennakoon, Commandant, School of Artillery were present on this occasion.
