Mamba is a high performance, compact, dual axis platform. It is particularly well

suited for Land and Naval applications including manned and unmanned vehicles/

vessels and also compound/vessel security.

The rugged but sleek form, along with its simple mounting interfaces, makes Mamba

ideal for deployment and operation in the harshest environments, and has an

integrated wiper for wet weather conditions.

Its small size also makes it the perfect gimbal for discreet base surveillance

monitoring and situational awareness.
