During
NAVDEX 2013 Oto Melara, a world leader in naval weapon systems, presented
for the first time a full scale model of its HITROLE-G RWS naval weapon
system.
The Oto Melara HITROLE RWS is a modern, fully stabilised, electrically
operated and remotely controlled naval
weapon system for policing operations and countering asymmetric threats.
The turret can be easily operated by a single operator through a Remote
Control Console and joystick or can be controlled by the ship’s
Combat Management System.

The

More than 150 HITROLE RWSs have been produced so far and they are in
service with more than 10 Navies or Coast Guards all over the world,
in some cases as primary weapon on board of small and fast ships for
patrolling and in some others as secondary armament on board of corvettes.
