TURRET SYSTEM FOR LIGHTWEIGHT MILITARY VEHICLE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A lightweight military vehicle is provided with an unmanned turret for interchangeably supporting large weapon stations. Elastomers filled stanchions connected to a turret platform serve to isolate weapon impulse forces from the vehicle frame. Driver, commander and gunner seats are located externally to the turret and provided with side doors to enable quick exiting. Both powered and manual backup drives are external to the rotating turret disk and are accessible from the gunner's seat. The elevation drive employs a ball and socket joint connecting an upper yoke mounted to the weapon with a fixed lower portion controlling vertical movement of the yoke and thereby the elevation of the gun.
