a complete range of actuators and controls has modular capabilities
suitable to a variety of existing tanks. Best known as GTDSS,
our Gun Turret Drive and Stabilization Systems have proven
essential to the effectiveness of the M1-A1 Abrams tank. Today,
these systems are being installed as original equipment manufacture
(OEM) on the M1 family of tanks, as well as other tanks. During
deployment in Desert Storm operations, the system demonstrated
outstanding performance, both day and night, accumulating
an impressive first-round strike-on-the-move record of greater
than 90%, at distances up to 3000 meters, without sacrificing
speed or combat mobility.

any advanced fire control system on the market today. Electromechanical
applications are also available for helicopters and boats.
