SKY-SHOT™ 5.56 / .223

Drone defence & anti-personnel · built for the rifles you already own

The 5.56 SKY-SHOT™ is a dual-purpose cartridge optimized for an aerial drone threat or an adversary. It is designed to be backward compatible with existing weapon systems: load and fire. No platform change required.

Each round carries one primary projectile plus four bonus segments. Rifling induces spin so all five pieces fly spin-stabilized, producing a predictable spread and a higher hit probability than ball ammunition. Pattern is optimized for about 16 inches at 50 yards. For anti-drone use, engage at 60 yards or closer for the highest hit probability. Listed effective range is up to about 600 feet / 200 yards / 183 meters from the shooter.

1 + 4 segments ~2,200 fps 5.56 & .223 ~16 in at 50 yd

Why it is different

Five chances per trigger press. One primary and four bonus shots leave the muzzle as a controlled pattern, not a single point of impact.
Spin does the work. Rifling stabilizes each segment for a more predictable spread than an unstabilized payload.
Drop-in compatible. Listed for 5.56 mm and .223 weapons. Load it the way you load ball.
Two jobs, one cartridge. Specified for anti-drone and anti-personnel use, with the tightest drone recommendation inside 60 yards.
Brass construction. Projectile material is brass. Tip color may vary. Three-year warranty.

Overview

The SKY-SHOT™ is a purpose-built anti-drone munition for standard 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington rifles. Interconnected projectile assemblies break into sub-projectiles upon leaving the barrel — functioning like buckshot from a long rifle — dramatically increasing hit probability against fast-moving aerial UAV threats at ranges up to ~600 ft / 200 yards / ~183 m with a velocity of ~2,200 fps (~670.5 m/s)

Designed for rapid deployment with no specialized launcher or setup required. Available in 1,000, 2,500, 5,000 and 10,000-round orders (1,000-round minimum). Made in the USA.

Dual-Purpose Munition from a Standard Rifle

SKY-SHOT™ transforms any 5.56 or .223 rifle into an effective anti-drone platform. Interconnected projectile assemblies separate into sub-projectiles as they leave the barrel, creating a spread pattern that maximizes hit probability against small, fast-moving aerial targets — all from a single trigger pull. No specialized launcher. No additional training. Just load and engage.

Sub-Projectile Engagement Pattern

Interconnected projectile assemblies break into sub-projectiles upon exiting the barrel, creating a wide spread pattern optimized for engaging small, fast-moving humanoids or aerial drone targets at distances up to ~600 ft / 200 yards / ~183 m

Standard Platform Compatible

Fires from any standard 5.56 NATO or .223 Remington rifle. No specialized launcher, modification, or additional equipment required. Rapid deployment from existing infantry loadout.

Bulk Institutional Ordering
