FutureWeapons goes to the most intense battlefield on the planet - Alaska.

. Ex-US Navy SEAL Richard 'Mack' Machowicz draws on his ten years Special Forces training as he witnesses how soldiers are trained not just to survive but thrive in this intense environment and then fight in one of the most hostile places on the planet. Mack tries the latest weapons and systems designed to fight in this most hostile of environments including one of the best sniper rifles for cold weather warfare designed to work at minus 40 Fahrenheit - a temperature at which most weapons would literally freeze. In the heart of the Alaskan wilderness lies the US Army’s Cold Regions Test Center (CRTC). Part of the Army Test and Evaluation Command, the CRTC has granted Future Weapons exclusive access to film extreme cold weather tests on weapons systems and equipment – assessing their performance in Arctic conditions.Featured weapons:- Artic Survival Training School- Stryker Mobile Gun System- M56e1 Smoke Generator- Arctic Warfare Super Magnum Sniper RifleMore Future Weapons
