STAMP-PLUS Remote Controlled Stabilized Machine Gun System

[cabatli_53]

STAMP-PLUS inherits existing capabilities and components of the current Remote Weapon Systems (RWS), namely 12.7mm STAMP and 30mm SMASH of ASELSAN, to cover a variety of missions and operational concepts.

STAMP-PLUS is built on the legacy of STAMP baseline and enhanced its capabilities with a High Accuracy Stabilized Gimbal (HASG) integrated electro-optic (EO) suit.

STAMP-PLUS features are:

• Stabilized and remotely operated naval weapon system, suitable to be installed on a range of naval vessels from Fast Interceptors to Corvettes, Frigates and Landing Platform Docks.
• Built with an independent, high accuracy and stabilized gimbal on the turret to perform in a variety of operational environments and missions.
• Real Time operating System
• Effective in day and night conditions for warfare with a diverse threat set up to

• Surface Threats (Sea and Land) up to 60 knots with high manoeuvring capability
• Air Threats up to 200 knots
• Man target

• Automatic target tracking with two-axis stabilized turret under adverse weather and sea conditions.
• Fire Control Computation

• Ballistic Calculations
• Zeroing and Parallax Correction
• Probable Hit Point Calculaions
  • Lead Angle Compensation
  • Own ship attitude compensation
• Lead Angle Compensation
• Temperature, Wind, Pressure Compensation

• Automatic slew-to-target capability assigned from the existing Combat Management System (CMS) and sensors of the ship.
• Network integration (multiple RWS)
• Start-up time of the system is less than 1 (one) minute.
• Manual back-up mode.
• Minimum radar cross-section.
• Minimum (except for the cabling) penetration on platform.
• Built-in-Test (BITE) capability.
• Modular structure and open hardware architecture for potential mid-life upgrades and optional improvements.
• Ergonomic Operator Console Design (MIL-STD-1472G compliant)
• Operator Console enables the Operator to offset the firing aim point when tracking threats and targets.
• System incorporates firing circuit interrupts and a firing enable key.
• Adjustable software no-fire zones; mechanical movement and firing cut-outs for training, elevation and depression.
• Collecting basket for casings, rounds and links ejected from the weapon
• Adjustable shot group quantitiy selection (1-3-5-10-20 or Continuous)
• Reduced rate of fire (150 rpm)
• Counting the fired rounds and Low Ammo Warning
• Warning Buzzer for Servo Active and Weapon is ready to fire (optional)
• Operating the system from multiple locations. Operator Console selector switch allows selection of the desired RWS mount.
• System operates at a reduced level of performance (non-stab mode, only TV camera mode, no LRF mode, back-up battery mode, manuel mode etc.) in the event of a critical failure.
• System is covered to protect functional components of the mounted weapon.
• System is built to withstand exposure to conditions up to and including Sea State 7.
• System has an operational life expectancy of 25 years.
• Technology Readiness Level 9.
