ASELSAN showcased its new STAMP turret system at DIMDEX 2012
 
ASELSAN developed a remote-controlled stabilised machine gun known as STAMP for defending against asymmetric threats. The system is envisaged for use on land and sea-based platforms including coastal and border defence.
     
Turkish company ASELSAN showcased its STAMP turret at DIMDEX 2012, the DOHA INTERNATIONAL MARITIME DEFENCE EXHIBITION in the Qatar National Convention Centre.

STAMP has a stabilized turret which enables the line-of-sight of the gun to be aimed at the target at all times. Due to the stabilization feature, the system can perform precise firings against stationary or moving targets while the platform is on-the-move.

STAMP can be operated remotely by using the remote gun control unit and hence enables gunner protection against counter fire. The system has additional features of defining the firing zones both in azimuth and elevation and automatic charging of the gun remotely.
