Talk about an unpronounceable headset name – the Silynx C4OPS GenNext headset system recently went on display at the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference in Florida. The C4OPS boasts ob being the first and only combat headset system able to provide GPS and force tracking capabilities to the dismounted soldier, courtesy of an integrated GPS receiver that locates the soldier’s current position, helping him zone in on the target through voice prompt indications. Hopefully this will be more accurate than those GPS maps that were poorly updated, having drivers end up in some rather ridiculous places like a ditch or kissing a tree. Heck, it is tough enough to outlast many of us, capable of functioning well in both High Altitude High Opening parachute operations down to 20 meters below the waterline.
