ABSTRACT:
Carried weapon system with a high orientation mobility in elevation and bearing.
The elevation mobility is ensured by eliminating the turret and the provision of a shaft in the vehicle superstructure in accordance with its longitudinal axis and the fixing of the weapon to its cradle in said shaft which is open towards the top and front and beneath the weapon towards the bottom. The mobility in bearing is ensured by the self-rotation of the vehicle which displaces the weapon.
Such movable turretless weapon system is able to fire at land, maritime and air targets.
