Report Overview
Report Overview
Air-Based Remote Weapon Stations generally refers to remote weapon systems designed for aerial platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drones, or other types of aircraft. A Remote Weapon Station (RWS) is a platform that allows a weapon, often a machine gun or a light cannon, to be operated and fired from a remote location, typically within the vehicle or aircraft itself.Ongoing efforts to make Air-Based RWS more compact and lightweight to minimize the impact on the overall weight and balance of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
