CSL 50/30 VIP M2
Viper M2 Midi Recoilless De-Armer Disruptor System
The CSL 50/30 VIP M2 Viper M2 is a fully recoilless de-armer disruptor system delivering high performance in a compact, highly deployable package. It is specifically suited for integration with small and medium-sized EOD robotic vehicles, where low mass and minimal recoil are essential.
​
The Viper’s modular design incorporates two interchangeable barrels and adjustable recoil compensation, allowing rapid reconfiguration to suit operational needs. The 30mm choked water barrel enables precise targeting of IED components and delivers sufficient impact force for effective close-range disruption, while the 30mm rifled barrel provides accurate stand-off capability, allowing operators and ROVs to remain at safer distances.
​
The M2 variant builds on the proven performance of the original Viper, offering improved reliability and the addition of a higher-velocity water shot, enhancing effectiveness in close-range C-IED applications.
