Browning-12,7 mm
Remote firepower. Precision under control.
A remotely controlled 30 mm weapon station designed for
integration with armoured vehicles and specialised combat platforms.
REMOTE FIREPOWER WITH DAY-AND-NIGHT CAPABILITY
The 12.7 mm remotely controlled weapon station combines the Browning M2 machine gun with optoelectronic observation, electric aiming drives and protected remote operation.
Its autonomous, enclosed architecture supports accurate weapon control, continuous azimuth movement and target observation in day and reduced-visibility conditions.
