REMOTELY CONTROLLED WEAPON STATION

NSVT-12.7 mm

Remote firepower. Day-and-night observation.

An autonomous remotely controlled weapon station designed for the
12.7 mm NSVT machine gun, featuring electric aiming drives and integrated day and thermal observation systems.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

REMOTE 12.7 MM FIREPOWER WITH INTEGRATED OBSERVATION

The 12.7 mm NSVT remotely controlled weapon station combines an enclosed autonomous architecture with electric weapon control and integrated optoelectronic observation.

Wide- and narrow-field television cameras, an uncooled thermal imaging channel and remote operator controls support target observation and weapon operation in day and reduced-visibility conditions.

WEAPON CONTROL SYSTEM

OBSERVATION AND WEAPON CONTROL FROM A PROTECTED POSITION

The weapon station is operated remotely through a joystick-based control unit and a 10-inch LCD monitor.

Integrated television and thermal imaging channels provide day-and-night observation, while electric drives control horizontal traverse and weapon elevation.

OPERATOR INTERFACE

10-INCH LCD

18–30 VDC

TV + IR

JOYSTICK CONTROL

The operator interface combines weapon control with wide-field,
narrow-field and thermal observation channels.

REMOTE OPERATION

MULTICHANNEL OBSERVATION AND ELECTRIC WEAPON CONTROL

Two television cameras provide wide- and narrow-field observation, while an uncooled thermal imaging channel supports operation in reduced-visibility conditions.

The operator controls weapon traverse, elevation and electric firing through the integrated joystick and monitor interface.

WIDE-FIELD OBSERVATION

A 23° × 17.4° television channel supports general situational awareness.

NARROW-FIELD OBSERVATION

A 4.5° × 3.4° television channel supports detailed target observation.

THERMAL IMAGING

An uncooled 640 × 480 thermal camera supports operation in reduced visibility.

ELECTRIC AIMING

Electric traverse and elevation mechanisms provide remote weapon positioning.
