Quick reaction time - Self defense capability - Immediate fire-power support capability - Low procurement costs - Low life cycle costs The Artemis 30 Twin Cannon Carriage is especially designed to combat air targets at short ranges with high effectiveness and low cost. It can be automatically controlled by a distant fire control system or locally by a gunner.
The high rate of fire together with the great accuracy ensure effective
operation against multiple targets. The A- 30 T.C.C. (twin cannon
carriage) can be provided, according to the customer’s requirements,
with intergrated optronic fire control thus maximizing its operational
capabilities.
Basic features include local control with remote
designation (radar or optical), fully automatic computation of
ballistics based on laser ranging, easy tracking and further expansion
to night operation. The T.C.C. (Twin Cannon Carriage) is a towed
autonomous, twin axle, split type, twin cannon carriage, with its own
power generating set, placed on a detachable front axle. Two 30mm
automatic cannons are placed on either side of elevating structure and
are completely independent of each other. The 30mm automatic cannons are
placed on either side of the elevating structure and are completely
independent of each other. The ammunition capacity of the carriage is
500 rounds ready to be fired at a rate of fire of 800 rds/min per
barrel. In the deployed position the cannon carriage is supported by two
slewable outriggers with hydraulic supports on the left and right side
of the main frame and a hydraulic support on the rear of the main frame.
The rear axle is swung up and the carriage is lowered to ensure that
the center of gravity is as low as possible. The modes of operation
include, remote, local and emergency operation. In the remote mode, the
T.C.C. receives positional and functional commands from a fire control
system whilst in local mode all TCC functions are controlled by one
gunner as long as electrical power and hydraulic system are on.
Emergency operation is a back up mode in the case that electrical power
is completely off, where the gunner uses manual pressure control and
hand crank wheels for mechanical positioning.
