The aimable weapon l therefore basically consists of a turret 2, a rapid-fire cannon 8 and an ammunition box 10, which together constitute one very compact device, with a tight mounting connection ( fast-fit components
) (not shown) can be easily attached to a helicopter. In addition, ammunition box 10 on weapon 1
Since it is mounted directly on the turret 2 adjacent to the rapid-fire gun 8, it not only takes up less space inside the helicopter, but also has a supply belt 11 designed to move with the ammunition box 10 and the turret 2, which allows said ammunition to be Since the box 10 and the rapid-fire cannon 8 are connected, there is no restriction on the movement of the turret 2 around its own axis 5.
