ian Remote weapon system produced by CTEx (Brazilian Army
engineers) and Ares.
It will be Flexible system that will be able to receive many configurations, like 7,62mm, .50, grenade launcher
.
The system will give soldiers 360° capacity and will be equipped with night vision, thermal vision, high resolution camera and zoom.
This system will be used with the VBTP-MR

Development
The REMAX has been developed incrementally with the following approach:- Phase I: The system allowed the creation of the shooting day
.50 machine gun;
- Phase II: the system could alternatively employ the
7.62 mm machine gun;
- Phase III was added night vision equipment, and
- Phase IV: the system will be stabilized to allow the
shot with a moving car.
