We could call it the "smart bullets". But the inventors chose to name the EXACTO (Extreme Accuracy Task Ordnance). This is a new generation of firearms bullets created by the Agency for Research and Development of the US Army (Darpa).
The ball EXACTO has a special feature: when pulled, it can change course and follow his target, even if it is in motion, then reach it. The ball has an optical guidance system that allows it to operate this hunting target in real time.
Tests were conducted in February by Darpa, the structure under supervision of the Pentagon, the Department of Defense of the United States.
By implementing this type of ammunition, the US military administration wants to make it easier for snipers; its snipers during their mission abroad. More présisement during operations in areas with very harsh weather conditions.
