ABSTRACT The disclosure relates to a control system for actuating a turret carrying a weapons system in an armored vehicle. An electrically actuated hydraulic system moves the weapons sys- tem in elevation and azimuth directions in driving the system toward a target. A manual pump backup is provided to effect movement in elevation when the automatic system is disengaged. A supercharger reservoir delivers makeup fluid to the pump under pressure to prevent cavitation. A variable capacity hydraulic motor is employed to drive the turret through the azimuth. Features described include various subsystems as well as the entire system.
