The net gun is designed for rapid combat against small and medium-sized UAVs by capturing and disabling them with mechanical nets. As the company explains, "Pauk Duplet" was developed as a portable means of individual protection for personnel, with an emphasis on ease of use and high readiness for deployment.
Technical characteristics of the device:
- engagement range up to 25 meters,
- projectile launch speed – 30 m/s,
- net area – 5.7 sq. m.
- Weight without projectile is 915 grams,
- total weight – 1.59 kg.
The device is powered by an 18650 lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 3000 mAh, charged via USB Type-C. The reloading time for interchangeable projectiles with a quick-release connection is from 3 seconds. The body is splash-proof (IP54) and remains operational at temperatures down to -30°C.
