Falcon Turret
The Falcon Turret is a low-profile main battle tank turret under development by King Abdullah II Design and Development Bureau in Jordan, with technical assistance from South Africa.[1][2]
Featuring an autoloader and capable of mounting the current RUAG Defense Systems L30 120mm smoothbore gun, the turret is to be fitted to Jordan's Challenger 1 and other main battle tanks, and to be available for export. Operating similarly to a remote weapon station, it enables all crew to be located inside the tank hull rather than the turret, giving the vehicle a lower profile and the crew added protection.
