Ich werde diese Aktie nur vorstellen, aber weder besprechen noch empfehlen. Warum wird schnell klar, wenn man sich mit dem Buisness von Metal Storm beschäftigt.

Nachdem aber FOCUS Money vor einigen Wochen  "Verteidigungsaktien" vorgestellt hat und "Homeland Security" shares in den USA hipp sind, gehört m.E. auch ein solcher share an ein Börsenboard.

Die news sind in den letzten Wochen gemischt: Kapitalerhöhung(kurz vor der Zahlungsunfähigkeit)mit 21.0 Mio US Dollar Erlös und Abgang des CEO zu Nortel Networks.

Daneben aber auch gute news über die Akzeptanz der Systeme.

Heimatböse ist Australien--dort MST.

In den USA--MTSX-- werden ADR gehandelt. 20 shares 1 ADR in den USA. In Deutschland auch in Frankfurt und Berlin.

New handgun triggers police anticipation

Meet the gun of the future: a high-tech weapon that can "talk", recognise its owners' hand grip and can even record and relay moments of conflict.Brisbane-based company Metal Storm's VLe smart gun is the world's first 100 per cent electronic handgun and it has law-enforcement agencies across the globe, including police in Australia, buzzing with anticipation. The prototype's features include a mechanism that disables the weapon almost instantly if a person, other than one who is authorised, grips the gun, and it has the capabilityto broadcast every movement of the weapon to police on back-up and/or at the station.The gun is also "verbally" able to tell the user - and criminal offender - what mode it is in and the possible escalating level of response from less-than-lethal to lethal.Metal Storm's general managerIan Gillespie said yesterdaythe company had been in discussions with the New York Police Department and had been working closely with the National Institute of Justice.With more than 700,000 law-enforcement agents and 28,000 gun deaths each year in the United States, he said the American market would benefitgreatly from the technology.Hesaid most gun deaths in the US were accidental, suicide or homicide and the smart gun could even help prevent deaths involving a child picking up a gun or guns being sold on the black market."Lives could be saved," Mr Gillespie said."The first and most importantthing [this weapon] can do is it can recognise an authoriseduser and an unauthorised user."

Test Firings Lay Groundwork for Airborne Weapon System

BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - 20 May 2004 – Metal Storm Limited (ASX trading code: MST and NASDAQ Small Cap ticker symbol MTSX)

International ballistics company Metal Storm Limited has completed test firings of its electronic ballistics weapon system from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in preparation for demonstration to US defence authorities.

The tests, conducted in the US this month, included a firing of inert 40mm grenade rounds in near simultaneous four-shot bursts from two lightweight grenade launchers mounted on a Dragonfly DP-4X Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) UAV developed by Dragonfly Pictures Inc (DPI).

Metal Storm Director of Scientific Innovation, Mr Mike O’Dwyer said the firings successfully demonstrated the integration of Metal’s Storm generic 40mm Ballistics System with the remotely operated UAV.

“These initial tests confirmed the integrity of the airframe, recoil management, fire control and remote operation systems during ground-based firing from the UAV in both tethered and untethered operation under full power,” Mr O’Dwyer said.

“The next step is a set of full in-flight test firings followed by the planned live firing demonstrations to US defence authorities, which we anticipate occurring within the next three months.”

“Our ability to provide a remotely controlled multi-shot modular weapon system with selectable rates of fire in a very compact and lightweight configuration that is totally nonmechanical, is unique. We are seeking to develop a system that can equip small to medium size UAV’s with a very versatile weapon system that provides effective firepower without compromising the operability of the aircraft.” Mr. O’Dwyer said.

DPI Chief Executive Officer, Mr Michael Piasecki said having the Metal Storm team at DPI’s Essington, Pennsylvania complex over recent weeks has enabled us to accelerate our progress.

“Together the two companies have integrated the Metal Storm system on our DP-4X VTOL UAV. The results and accomplishments to date reinforce our commitment to this project, and confirm that Metal Storm offers a genuinely transformational electronic weapon system”.

“By combining our technologies we provide small VTOL UAVs with a real offensive capacity. I expect in due course that our new Dragonfly DP-4X UAV will be able to provide running or strafing fire with 40mm high explosive or other rounds.

“We expect the same weapon system will be able to provide vertical downward fire to disrupt Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), such as we see daily in Iraq. The company commander will be able to direct the DP-4X to deliver the 40mm, or other calibre weapons, at targets before they threaten his personnel in convoy protection tasks, urban terrain operations and in reconnaissance roles.” Mr Piasecki said.

A video clip of the UAV test firing will shortly be available for viewing on the Metal Storm website: www.metalstorm.com

Metal Storm Conducts Demonstration of Robot-Mounted Weapon System in U.S.Thursday May 20, 9:44 am ET ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 20, 2004--Metal Storm Limited (NASDAQ:MTSX and ASX: MST) International ballistics company Metal Storm Limited has demonstrated the live firing of its electronic ballistics system from a robotic ground vehicle to key defense personnel in the US. ADVERTISEMENTThe demonstration included the remotely controlled firing of stacked pyrotechnic and inert 40mm rounds from a four-barrel pod with recoiling system mounted on a "Talon" robot manufactured by Foster-Miller Inc. (Foster-Miller) and supplied and operated by the US Army's Picatinny Arsenal facility. Metal Storm personnel worked closely with US Department of Defense representatives on the Warren Grove Gunnery Range in New Jersey, USA to conduct the demonstrations which were attended by defense personnel including the US Army Research Development Engineering Command (ARDEC), and a number of industry representatives including several from Telecordia - an associate company of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), and General Dynamics Corporation. Metal Storm's Director of Scientific Innovation, Mr. Mike O'Dwyer said the firing represented a significant demonstration of the capability and versatility of the generic Metal Storm 40mm Ballistics System, combining it with an important piece of existing military equipment with potential to greatly enhance its operational capability. "Our electronic ballistics system has no mechanical parts and provides a lightweight, compact weapon which carries a payload of 16 shots, 10 more than the existing alternative. The system is capable of variable rates of fire, selected and fired by remote control. We intend to undertake further development of the Metal Storm system with a view to increasing the payload to 48 shots" said Mr. O'Dwyer. "The Metal Storm robotic weapon system can punch above its weight, offering real potential for robotic vehicles to undertake more offensive roles on operations." "Because the system is able to deliver a payload disproportionate to its size and weight, it is potentially suitable for a range of different applications that could significantly increase the operational capability for field commanders," said Mr. O'Dwyer. The Talon robot has been developed by Foster-Miller to operate in rugged terrain up to 1.6 kilometres from its base, and is currently in service in Afghanistan and Iraq. It is an all-weather, all-terrain, tracked robot with a day/night capability, and can be configured for many different types of missions. It provides a potential first strike option that does not risk soldiers' lives. Foster-Miller Inc. President Dr. William Ribich said the versatility and capability of the Metal Storm weapon system are highly impressive. "The combination of Metal Storm and Foster-Miller technologies provides significant potential to deliver new robotic capabilities that meet our military customers' complex requirements," Dr Ribich said. "We anticipate that further development would allow the Talon/Metal Storm system to provide intense firepower at various ranges, using either lethal or less-than-lethal munitions. "This capability would make it ideal for tasks such as access denial, facility protection and crowd control missions," he said. Video clips of the Metal Storm / Talon demonstration will shortly be available for viewing on the Metal Storm website: www.metalstorm.com About Metal Storm Metal Storm Limited is a defense technology company, employing 60 staff, headquartered in Brisbane, Australia and incorporated in the US, with offices in Washington DC and a defense engineering capability located in Seattle, operating as ProCam Machine LLC.

Metal Storm has successfully test fired the world’s first totally electronic handgun. Introducing the O’Dwyer VLe. A prototype military and specialist police weapon which operates without any of the moving parts of conventional systems. No parts to wear, none to maintain, and none to jam. Unlike all other handguns, the only parts which move in this weapon are the bullets. The VLe enjoys the jam-free reliability of total non-mechanical operation, and fires rounds which are stacked directly in the barrels. Even the magazine is gone - replaced by electronics which control every operation of the weapon. The VLe handgun provides the safety of electronic locking, which can limit firing access, and prevent unauthorised use. The weapon will only operate when a correct response is received to a coded transmission. It then becomes active in just a tenth of a second. [VLe ‘speaks’ SINGLE SINGLE] With the safety “off”, it’s ready to fire. If the coded receiver is removed, the weapon can be set to return to 'Safe' mode… [VLe ‘speaks’ SAFE SAFE] This electronic ballistics technology can protect police officers by preventing a criminal shooting an officer with his or her own gun. [VLe ‘speaks’ SAFE SAFE] And because the operating system is entirely electronic, the weapon’s software can very easily incorporate future improvements in developing Security technologies such as finger print recognition. The electronics can store the weapon’s ownership data to reduce theft and illegal trafficking in arms. The memory can also store an accurate history of the weapon’s use.This is a talking weapon and it can audibly confirm all fire and safety settings to the police officer as well as signal any change in settings to a criminal [VLe ‘speaks STUN STUN/LETHAL LETHAL]. As a result the criminal is aware in the increase in response level and has an opportunity to back down. For the first time, a police officer can choose between lethal bullets or non-lethal projectiles such as small bean bags. It’s a choice which can resolve a conflict without causing serious injury. With this technology a lethal response is not the only response. It is a feature of this weapon that, in the unlikely event of a misfire, firing the following round will clear both rounds from the barrel. The fully developed weapon will include a rapid reload capability and will be designed to be able to operate without a battery. A recoiling barrel will enable multiple rounds to be fired at a single aim point before recoil effect. The amazing capabilities of the O’Dwyer VLe truly brings handguns into the age of full electronics with new levels of safety, security and reliability.  Metal Storm Limited

Metal Storm Wins US Funding for Munitions Development
Tuesday January 17, 6:29 pm ET


ARLINGTON, Va., Jan. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Defense technology company Metal Storm Limited today announced that its subsidiary Metal Storm, Inc had been awarded a two year contract worth approximately A$975,000 from the US Army's Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC) for the design, prototyping and demonstration of Metal Storm less-than-lethal munitions. The company had advised the market on 21 November 2005 that this contract was expected.
ADVERTISEMENT


Under the Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract, Metal Storm will design and build prototype less-than-lethal munitions for demonstration to ARDEC of a range of crowd-control options. These munitions will be compatible with the Metal Storm 40mm launcher technology. Incorporated into the munitions will be "smart-round" capabilities, providing an improved level of safety and flexibility in the less-than-lethal spectrum of operations. The project effort, entitled "Metal Storm Crowd Control System," will extend over a 2 year period.

"The confirmation of this Phase II SBIR contract is very timely as much of our current engineering efforts are directly focused on the final development of our High Explosive (HE) munitions. Being able to expand our current efforts into specific less-lethal capabilities will fit nicely with our 2006 strategic plans," said Metal Storm's Chief Executive Officer, David Smith.

"We are extremely pleased to receive this award from the US Army in support of their efforts to provide broad war fighting versatility. Metal Storm systems have potential to add significant capability to operations requiring crowd control for the urban warfare environment while also having numerous applications and market opportunities in civil law enforcement scenarios."

"As advised to the market in September 2005, Metal Storm is also currently working under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with ARDEC in relation to the development of HE munitions. This critical business relationship will become even more advantageous as we add the less-lethal line of munitions to the already established framework for the rapid development, testing, and eventual certification of a range of 40mm munitions for use in Metal Storm weapons systems. We will continue to keep the market informed of our progress in this area," said Mr. Smith.

As announced on 2 December 2005, Metal Storm was also recently awarded a Phase II SBIR contract with the US Department of Defense worth approximately Au$1.32 million for the development and testing of a remotely operated weapon system.

See the footnotes below for further information regarding ARDEC, the SBIR program, and less-than-lethal systems.

About the US Army SBIR Program (Source: US Army Research Office website - all amounts expressed in US$)

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program is a Congressionally-mandated program which was established in 1982 (with subsequent reauthorizations in 1986, 1992, and 2000 until 2008) to increase the participation of small businesses in federal research and development (R&D).

The goal of the dual-use SBIR Program is to tap into the innovativeness and creativity of the small business community to help meet government R&D objectives. At the same time, these small companies develop technologies, products, and services which they can then commercialize through sales in the private sector or back to the government.

Three-Phase Process

The SBIR Program conducts a project, if successful, through three phases. Proposals submitted in response to the solicitation topics are competitively selected for Phase I awards. Note that Phase I is the entry point to the program; it cannot be bypassed. Phase I proposals must respond to a specific topic in the solicitation; the SBIR Program does not accept unsolicited proposals.

In Phase I, the company must prove the feasibility of its concept within a six-month, Phase I - $70,000 effort. The Phase I contract also includes an option, for up to $50,000, which may be exercised by the Army to fund interim Phase II activities if the project is selected to receive a Phase II award. The option is intended to fund initial Phase II activities for up to four months while the Phase II contract is being negotiated, providing critical continuity to the company's overall SBIR effort.

Successful Phase I companies are invited to compete for Phase II funding by submitting Phase II proposals near the end of their Phase I efforts. Phase II is a substantial R&D effort, up to $730,000 over two years, and is intended to result in a dual-use prototype product or service meeting the requirements of the original solicitation topic and which can be made commercially viable.

Phase III is the goal of every SBIR effort, and represents the commercialization phase of the program. In Phase III, the successful company markets the products or services developed in Phase II, either to the government or in the commercial sector. No SBIR funds can be used in Phase III. The intention of SBIR is that each company receiving an investment of SBIR funds during Phases I and II should now be prepared to compete in the commercial marketplace in Phase III.

About Less than Lethal Weapons (Source: Department of Defense Directive. (1996, 9 July) Policy for Non-Lethal Weapons. No. 3000.3)

The US Department of Defense defines these weapons as follows:

Weapons that are explicitly designed and primarily employed so as to incapacitate personnel or material, while minimizing fatalities, permanent injury to personnel, and undesired damage to property and the environment. Unlike conventional lethal weapons that destroy their targets principally through blast, penetration and fragmentation, non-lethal weapons employ means other than gross physical destruction to prevent the target from functioning. Non-lethal weapons are intended to have one, or both, of the following characteristics: a. they have relatively reversible effects on personnel or materiel, b. they affect objects differently within their area of influence.
