A gun turret (or simply turret) is a mounting platform from which weapons can be fired that affords protection, visibility and ability to turn and aim. A modern gun turret is generally a rotatable weapon mount that houses the crew or mechanism of a projectile-firing weapon and at the same time lets the weapon be aimed and fired in some degree ...

A turret is a rotating weapon platform, strictly one that crosses the armour of whatever it is mounted on with a structure called a barbette (on ships) or basket (on tanks) and has a protective structure on top (gunhouse).

The mounted weapons, the platform and all other associated supporting equipments together form the weapon system. In more general use, a weapons platform could be structured around a gun, such as a gun turret on a ship, or bracing on an aircraft.

RIwP is a proven, modular, and scalable remote turret providing unmatched capacity to host multi-domain payloads for current and future ground-combat platforms. This remote weapon platform offers air defense, anti-armor, or multi-mission capabilities via world-class precision medium-caliber and indirect fires.

You can gain access to the expertise in fire control, gun control, weapon stabilization, and weapons integration found on over 30 of the world’s leading military vehicle platforms including manned and unmanned turrets and remote weapon stations.

A gun turret is a weapon mount that protects the crew or mechanism of a projectile-firing weapon and at the same time lets the weapon be aimed and fired in many directions. The turret is also a rotating weapon platform. This platform can be mounted on a …

2024年1月23日 · Standalone turret choices range from those housing the 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, up to those armed with a 120 mm smoothbore gun. This article will examine the wide variety of turrets, including both large- and medium-calibre turrets, and explore common types of configurations that industry offers.

2023年1月25日 · The turret’s mantlet protected the gun mount, elevation, and traverse mechanisms, enabling the crew to engage targets through 360°. To serve the weapon, turrets were typically designed to accommodate at least three …

In this work, we study the problem of gun-turret control of an armored combat vehicle. We develop a complete, fully coupled dynamic model with seven degrees of freedom, dealing properly with nonholonomic constraints. The pa-rameters for simulation are based on a Leopard 1A1 tank and obtained by 3-dimensional modelling and by experimental methods.

Gun Turret Drive chaser combines hardware and software for modular control units with scalable power electronics, gyroscopes, and electromechanical elevation and traversing drives. The result is a high-performance gun aiming and stabilization …
