Remax (Reparo de Metralhadora Automatizada X) is a Brazilian remote weapon system produced by CTEx (Brazilian Army engineers) and Ares Aeroespacial e Defesa S.A. It's a flexible system able to receive many configurations, like ×ばつ51mm NATO">×ばつ51mm NATO, 12.7 mm. The system gives soldiers 360° capacity and is equipped with night vision, thermal vision, high resolution camera and zoom.[1] The project is in advanced stage. From now on, only minor modifications will be made in order to reduce system weight, thus improving their performance.
