    Modular Advanced Weapon System (MAWS)


    The Modular Advanced Weapon System, or MAWS, is a remote weapon system designed to employ ATKs M230LF cannon, the link-fed version of the highly reliable M230 Cannon carried on the AH-64 Apache helicopter. The weapon system was developed in partnership with the U.S. Navy to provide greater range and lethality than crew-served weapons and to fill the need for a lightweight weapon system. The MAWS stabilization system, ballistic computation and quality sensors provide superior targeting for shipboard and ground engagements. The Remote Operators Console, or ROC, is easily configured to fit the intended craft or vehicle space available. The Man-Machine Interface includes a touch panel display, function and safety switches, and either dual grips or a MILSPEC video game-type joystick controller. The remote operator console has demonstrated an intuitive design for ease of use and quick learning by the warfighter.
