Purpose Built to Give All U.S. Army and Marine Corps Squads Dominance at
Extreme Distances TrackingPoint M1400 338LM bolt-action rifleTrackingPoint
Pflugerville, TX - TrackingPoint announced today its latest Precision-Guided Firearm. The squad-level M1400 338LM bolt-action rifle engages stationary and moving (up to 20 mph) targets out to 1400 yards.
The
squad-level M1400 represents a breakthrough in performance, cost, and
weight in comparison to TrackingPoint’s prior extreme distance
precision-guided firearms. The squad-level M1400 is designed to provide
unprecedented battle stand-off capabilities at the squad level. The
M1400 gives every squad a precision shooting expertise at ranges beyond
the capabilities of skilled snipers.
The squad-level M1400 announcement is part of a series of announcements that establish TrackingPoint as a primary advocate for all soldiers
as they fight on today’s dynamic and chaotic battlefields. The
squad-level M1400 is one of a series of products that super-charge
today’s Army and Marine Corps squads. The company previously announced
the M600 Service Rifle and the M800 Designated Marksman Rifle.
“The
M1400 provides a clear advantage against any adversary in our current
and future conflicts, including our current war on radical Islamic
terrorism. Coupled with the M600 and M800, our Army and Marine Corps
squads now can bring withering dominance to the field of battle,” said John McHale, TrackingPoint CEO. “Extreme
distance lethality is no longer the exclusive domain of trained
snipers. With minimal training, any soldier can reliably deliver
lethality well beyond what is possible for today’s expert marksmen,” said McHale.
RapidLok Target Elimination Fire Control System
As
a Soldier or Marine pulls the trigger, the target is automatically
acquired and tracked. When trigger pull completes, the target is
instantly eliminated. Total Time-To-Kill (TTK) is approximately 2.5
seconds. RapidLok Fire Control is image stabilized, enabling fighters to
lock targets with relative ease. RapidLok has an auto-snap feature that
automatically adjusts point-of-impact to target center of mass. Also,
target velocity is instantly measured and calculated in the launch
solution. RapidLok incorporates a laser-based Barrel Reference System
that ensures shot-to-shot perfect zero eliminating error from shock,
vibration, or environmental changes such as temperature, humidity, and
barometric pressure.
Zero-Signature Lethality
The
M1400 streams video to TrackingPoint’s ShotGlass wearable glasses. The
Soldier or Marine can see the battlefield without putting his head
behind the gun. He or she is completely unexposed and can see and
eliminate targets exactly as if looking through the scope. Soldiers and
Marines can shoot over berms and around corners with an extremely high
hit rate on moving targets at extreme distances.
Availability and Pricing
The M1400 is $16,995 and is available for order now. Order shipments will begin shipping on September 1, 2016
to the United States Military, other United States organizations that
can legally fight our adversaries, and qualified United States citizens.
Besides its unique warfighting and force protection capabilities, the
savings in training time and ammunition make the M1400 a very
cost-effective weapon.
