Shadow System "Thinking Outside The Box"

"THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX'

At Shadow System "Thinking Outside The Box" has proved to be the best solution

to unresolved security breach issues. By employing these solutions to Environmentally Friendly Energy, Rapid Mobility, Patrol Security, Search & Rescue even NASA pilot traning we found products that have low environmental impact, field servicability, are cost effective, budget conscious and also user friendly.

The Vietnam War forced the United States to rethink its

strategies on the battlefield in 1966. The need for rapid

deployment, interdiction, enemy suppression and

intelligence gathering was complicated by weather,

jungles, swamps and poorly maintained roads.

In 1968 “Operation White Star” was the first of

many covert ops designed to give the military a

fighting chance. From that lesson a variety of

“Outside The Box Solutions” were formulated.

Task Force 116 commenced and later that year an

operation named “Game Warden” commenced.

This was the first time that hovercraft were used by

the United States in direct combat zones.

It was so successful that many other similar operations commenced “Riverine”, “Bolo”, “Sea Lord”, “Site 85”, “Linebacker” and later “Linebacker II”. Countless American lives were saved by unconventional tactics and the use of unique equipment. To date they are still the most successful wartime operations since World War II.

Shadow System found a new generation

of ULTV [“Ultra-light Tactical Vehicles”] for the

future mobile infantry. Today technology is

more advanced and new unique products are

being manufactured that can be used for

“Rapid Mobility”. In the 21st Century the foot

soldier is all but obsolete. With the intergration

HUD and UAV technology the risk are lessened;

However the Army fully equipped with

ATV’s, Snowmobiles and Light Hovercraft

will be the dominant combat force of the

future.

These products are user friendly,

with low impact motorcycle technology,

which reduces the cost, logistics and

difficulties of parts spares and are field

serviceable. [Click photos to see videos]

SportVue HUD Helmet technology is now available to the public. We are bringing this affordable solution to patrol security, law enforcement and the military at a fraction of the past costs.

Envision this RF based HUD technology working for your troops.

During the Vietnam War the

MD-500 impressed both Air Force,

Army and Marines with its low noise

signature, impressive armament

carrying capabilities, field service and

exceptional handling and speed. "Task

Force 160" the military [MD-500]

versions AH-6J “Little Bird”

dubbed by pilots as the “Killer Egg”.

Today the AH-6J still ranks #5 of

the top ten military helicopters.

When the U.S. military need a solution to the vulnerability and failure of helicopter tail rotors the MHX competition was authorized. Of the three U.S. helicopter manufacturers McDonnell Douglas surpassed both Bell Aerospace and Sikorsky Helicopter with it’s NOTAR [No Tail Rotor] system.

It still is the fastest light helicopter in the business produced by a U.S. manufacturer,

Both the "MD-500", "MD-600" NOTAR iand "MD-900" Explorer NOTAR s are "the least expensive and only rotor-less helicopter in the world”.

With McDonnell Douglas NOTAR affordability why isn’t in full combat service?

"Thinking Outside The Box" the aerospace industry has designed some of the most advanced fighter jets of the 20th Century. North American produced the F-100 Super Saber the "Worlds First Supersonic Jet".

The Republic Aviation F-105 “Thunderchief”,

supersonic fighter-bomber was Mach 2 capable

F-105 [at left] bore the brunt of strike bombing

over North Vietnam during the early years of the

Vietnam War. During the war, the two-seat F-105F

and F-105G the first “Wild Weasel” variants became

the first dedicated Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses

(SEAD) platforms.

The McDonnell Douglas F-101 “Voodoo” was

a supersonic military fighter. While the “Voodoo”

was a moderate success, it may have been more

important as an evolutionary step towards the F-4

“Phantom II”, one of the most successful Western

fighter designs of the1960s. The "Phantom II"

would retain the twin engines, twin crew for

interception duties, and a tail mounted well above

and behind the jet exhaust.

The McDonnell Douglas A-4 "Skyhawk [above left] and F-4 "Phantom II" [above right] revolutionized the aerospace industry and placed the U.S. as #1 in Air Superiority.

SAAB, Sweden bought a little known

Pratt & Whitney engine from Canada

code named “Iroquois” which proved to

be outstanding. The 2 seat SK-37 [left] &

single seat JS-37 “Viggen” [Thunderbolt]

“Worlds First Canard Wing Fighter” was

built. Ithas exceptional short field take-off and

landing.

Because of the Vietnam War the F-4 was not being sold to our allies. The U.K. and France formed SEPTCAT and built the "Jaguar" [see left & below] with almost identical

handling characteristics of the F-4 Phantom.

Dassault Aircraft, France produced their

advanced fighters F1 & 2000 Mirages; later

adding canard wings. Lockheed, South America produced a unique twin turboprop IA-58 Pucara [Fortress] [left & below] which proved formidable, built for speed, maneuverability,

leathality and crew survivability in mind.

Pucara shared many similarities in both its combat role and outward design to the Rockwell OV-10 Bronco.

"Next Generation" [ at right] a military version [Trainer/ Light Fighter] of the VIPER JET LXR is now in developemental design and testing.EADS Aerospace supplies 1/3rd of the worlds helicopters EMS, Police, Fire Service and Military. Recent conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and Africa have shown that helicopters are excellent force multipliers and give ground troops the critical tactical support.
