SENTINEL RC-127D

Stabilized dual-weapon land remote weapon station for protected surveillance and precise engagement.

SENTINEL RC-127D combines a selected 12.7 mm primary weapon with an additional selected 7.62 mm weapon. The remotely operated, stabilized architecture broadens mission flexibility while keeping the operator protected during surveillance, detection, tracking and engagement.

Dual-weapon flexibility for land platforms

The dual-weapon arrangement supports mission-specific weapon selection and protected engagement from tactical vehicles, fixed surveillance posts and weapon towers.

01

Dual-weapon architecture

A selected 12.7 mm primary weapon is paired with a selected 7.62 mm secondary weapon in one stabilized station.

02

Protected remote operation

Remote control and firing keep the operator under protection, while manual back-up supports operational continuity.

03

Shoot-on-the-move capability

Stabilized control supports surveillance, tracking and engagement of stationary and moving targets while the host vehicle is in motion.

04

Automated fire-control support

Automatic target tracking and ballistic calculation using laser range data support rapid, computer-based firing solutions.

Key capabilities
Integrated surveillance and engagement

SENTINEL RC-127D combines stabilized weapon control, passive day/night sensing and automated fire-control functions for mobile and fixed land-system applications.

Configuration and options

Alternative single-weapon 7.62 mm, 12.7 mm and 40 mm configurations can be evaluated within the wider SENTINEL programme. Available integration options may include STANAG 4569 armor protection, wireless remote operation, under-armor or external ammunition reloading and picture-in-picture display.

Mission-specific payloads can include smoke grenade launchers, an infrared laser pointer, acoustic gunshot detection and 40 mm airburst-ammunition integration.

Platform integration

Structural loads, power and data interfaces, electromagnetic compatibility, safe firing arcs, ammunition handling, operator ergonomics and environmental qualification are assessed for the selected host platform and mission.

European supply and licensed manufacture

Artillerie Inrichtingen Armaments BV supports European and North American customers with programme coordination, system integration, lifecycle support and licensed manufacturing in the Netherlands, subject to the agreed industrial, contractual and regulatory framework.
