1. A weapon launched reconnaissance system comprising:
- a. a rear assembly connectable to the barrel of a weapon, said rear assembly having a hollow passage enabling a bullet and/or exhaust gases coming out of said barrel to pass through it when said weapon is fired;
b. a center assembly, connected to the front end of said rear assembly, said center assembly comprising components for absorbing the momentum of said bullet and/or gases and transferring said momentum to said reconnaissance system;
c. a sensor assembly, including one or more sensors and data transmission components, said sensor assembly located within or on said center assembly; and
d. a front assembly, connected to the front end of said center assembly, said front assembly comprising a nose portion capable of penetrating and sticking to solid materials upon impact;
wherein when said reconnaissance system is connected to the end of said barrel of said weapon by means of said rear assembly and a shot is fired from said weapon said reconnaissance system is launched from said weapon and projected towards a target by said momentum of said bullet and/or said gases and when impacting upon said target said front assembly penetrates and sticks in said target whereupon said sensor assembly transmits data from the target area.
