FACTS ABOUT THE ARX®20

It stands out for its ammunition versatility, capable of firing armor-piercing, high-explosive, and tracer rounds, making it adaptable to a wide range of targets, from armored vehicles to aircraft. Its high rate of fire (750 rounds per minute) and accuracy at long range (up to 2,000 meters) make it particularly effective against both moving and stationary targets at mid-range distances.

The ARX®20 features a modular design, allowing for easy integration onto platforms such as armored vehicles or naval ships, providing great adaptability. Its reliability and durability in extreme conditions (heat, cold, dust) make it a top choice for missions in harsh environments. Finally, the simplified maintenance of the ARX®20, thanks to its optimized design, ensures enhanced operational availability and efficient service time management.
