WP500-2 Smart Weapons Tester

Handheld Smart Weapons Tester

500-Series Handheld Tester

WP500-2

The WilliamsRDM WP500-2 Smart Weapons Tester (SWT) is the next-generation handheld test set for modern and legacy aircraft armament systems. Engineered for rugged military environments and designed for ease of use, the SWT delivers comprehensive test capabilities in the smallest, lightest package available. 

Designed with today’s agile warfighter in mind, the SWT directly supports the USAF’s Agile Combat Employment (ACE) concept — enabling rapid armament verification and fault isolation at remote or austere locations, without the need for heavy or fixed support equipment.

With full MIL-PRF-28800G Class 1 compliance, the SWT supports MIL-STD-1760, MIL-STD-1553, and 16PP194 (WMUX) communications, providing unmatched flexibility for O-Level testing across multiple aircraft platforms, including Clean Wing (Flightline Fault Isolation) testing.
