A complete episode special on novel defence technologies coming out of the the land of Israel in her desperate struggle for survival against the threat of destruction and terror.

Recent developmental and soon to be introduced new capability for the growing lethality of the ATK Bushmaster Mk44 30mm Chain Gun. Definitely a highly valued add-on improvement to our Mk44-equipped Bionix 2's main armament.
