Overview
The GCS-100 is a compact and easily deployed platform for effective clearance of Anti-Personnel (AP) mines, disposal of Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), in ultra-rugged, hard-to-access and urban environments – built, tested and operationally certified to international standards.
The GCS-100 is a high endurance remote-controlled tracked platform that meets the requirements of the light mine clearance machines designed to render safe explosive hazards and to prepare the ground in accordance with the IMAS 09.50 and CWA 15044:2009 standards. Conformity and suitability of GCS-100 equipped with either Flail or Tiller Attachments as a mechanical ground preparation machine has been independently tested, evaluated, and certified by CROMAC – Centre for Testing, Development and Training (CROMAC-CTDT) in Croatia in accordance with the IMAS 09.50 and CWA 15044:2009 standards. GCS-100 equipped with either Flail or Tiller Attachments detonates or destroys explosive hazards including antipersonnel mines, and mechanically prepares the ground to a depth of up to 200 mm, including vegetation cutting and clearing, removal of tripwires, loosening the soil, and the processing of soil and debris. GCS-100 equipped with M-100 Manipulator Arm is capable of dealing with heavy objects, and has a lifting capacity from 90 kg up to 950 kg. Manipulator arm comes with a BT-100 Bucket Tool for excavation of buried bombs or UXO/IED. The GT-100 Gripper Tool is used for grabbing the bombs/IED/UXO for relocation. Manipulator Arm is also used for dangerous tasks such as remote- controlled manipulation of UXOs or IEDs from cover, route clearance and area preparation. It is also an ideal tool for tasks such as digging trenches and burn-out kilns.
