Programmable Airburst

Programmable precision. Multi-target effectiveness. Artillerie Inrichtingen Armaments BV presents CAELIX 25, a programmable 25 × 137 mm airburst munition designed to counter swarms of mini and micro unmanned aerial systems and engage selected ground targets.

Precise muzzle programming

CAELIX 25 is programmed at the muzzle using the measured velocity of each projectile. Muzzle-velocity compensation supports precise fuze setting and a high hit probability against selected air and land targets. The electronic fuze combines airburst, point-detonating and self-destruct functions within a common 25 × 137 mm platform interface.

01

Muzzle-compensated programming

Measured projectile velocity is incorporated into precise time-of-function programming at the muzzle.

02

Multi-mode electronic fuze

Time-programmable airburst, point-detonating and electronic self-destruct functions support multiple target types.

03

Pre-fragmented projectile

A pre-fragmented projectile body supports controlled effects against mini and micro UAS and selected land targets.

04

Safety and resilience

Mechanical safety and arming, electronic self-destruct and resistance to electromagnetic interference and jamming support reliable operation.

Mission applications

CAELIX 25 provides a common programmable ammunition solution for counter-UAS, vehicle-mounted weapon stations, modular turret upgrades and selected land-defence missions.

Upgrade existing 25 mm platforms

A modular muzzle programming unit can be integrated with compatible weapon stations and turrets, enabling conventional 25 mm gun systems to incorporate programmable airburst capability without requiring an entirely new weapon platform.

Final compatibility remains subject to platform-specific technical assessment, integration and qualification.
