Weapon stations
Natter 7.62 mm
The 7.62 mm NATTER weapon station was initially developed for use on a truck. Taking into account a permissible roof load of max. 105 kg and the application of modular weapon armament kits, the NATTER 7.62 represents a significant combat upgrade of the otherwise unarmoured transport vehicles.
The Natter has an all-weather FlexEye sensor system installed coaxially to the weapon line. A significant performance feature is the ability, through digital video processing, to keep the target constantly acquired and displayed centred to the operator as the weapon swings in to the calculated attachment and lead.
Natter 12.7 mm
The NATTER 12.7 weapon station is ideally suited for integration into wheeled or tracked armoured vehicles. The system achieves its high flexibility in use through various armament sets in 12.7 x 99 mm calibre or the possibility of using a GMG.
Like the Natter 7.62 mm, the heavy version is also equipped with the all-weather FlexEye sensor system.
MSSA – MAIN SENSOR SLAVED ARMAMENT
MSSA is a remote-controlled weapon station of the latest generation, which is capable of countering the diverse threat scenarios of a modern conflict. The system can be equipped with machine guns of different calibres as well as automatic grenade launchers. The system’s modular modification options range from non-lethal weapons (e.g. ROSY, Laser-Dazzler) to a CUAS configuration (radar system in conjunction with an MG6, for example). Even heavily armoured targets can be engaged thanks to the integration of Spike launchers.
The MSSA is a highly functional extension of the state-of-the art SEOSS sight system and offers the option of a killer-killer capability for infantry fighting vehicles and battle tanks without restricting all-round visibility or requiring additional installation space on the turret.
