Dead Air developed the Sierra 5 specifically around the requirements of modern 5.56 rifle platforms rather than adapting a larger multi-caliber suppressor to the cartridge.
Its internal construction combines Cobalt 6 baffles with stainless-steel components. Dead Air describes its high-efficiency baffle design as balancing sound reduction at the muzzle with reduced back pressure and muzzle-flash mitigation.
The Sierra 5 is also modular. Its HUB-compatible rear interface allows it to work with compatible mounting options, while the front accepts Dead Air R-Series front caps and accessories.
The Sierra 5 KM is the KeyMo-equipped version of the suppressor. With the KeyMo adapter installed, it measures approximately 6.27 inches long, 1.5 inches in diameter, and weighs 15.4 ounces.
