factors, feeding the gun mount with lead angle and super-elevation that result
in high hit probability. An electro-optical director, coupled with the fire control
computer and automatic tracker, maintain on-going engagement until mission
success.
The Typhoon family has set the standards for stabilized, remotely controlled,
small caliber, naval gun systems. The TYPHOON can serve as a secondary
gun for large vessels, as well as main gun for patrol boats. Firepower can be
boosted with on-mount integration of various missile types.
The MINI-TYPHOON is a lightweight, naval, stabilized and remote operated
machine gun system.
The MINI-TYPHOON is an optimal solution as perimeter protection for large
vessels. The MINI-TYPHOON can also function as main gun for small, fast
patrol boats, significantly enhancing hit probability under rough conditions.
