HITFIST® is a two-man, power operated turret armed with a 30mm chain gun cannon and a 7.62mm coaxial machine gun.

The turret is built with ballistic aluminium alloy, additional steel armour plates and composite material to reach the required protection level.

The low profile of the shell design, the retractable episcopes, the reduced total weight make the HITFIST® turret suitable for installation on wheeled/tracked vehicles airtransportable on C130.

The new HITFIST® fire control system guidance set allows engagement of targets by day and night; the electrical, fully digital servosystems and the line of fire stabilization ensure a high accuracy of fire. Crew consists of two men who sit side by side in the turret the commander on the left, the gunner on the right.

A single man can fully operate the turret.

The main armament is a cannon of 30mm, electrically controlled for elevation, traversing and firing operations; feeding is through belted rounds housed in two ammunition containers.

The HITFIST® fire control system includes a KOLLSMAN sight with eye-safe laser rangefinder and a GALILEO AVIONICA GEN II IR camera, two LCD color displays, a meteo and a vertical reference sensor suite and laser warning (option).
