Reconfigurable Integrated-weapons Platform (RIwP®)
Proven capability and capacity to host maximum multi-domain lethality payloads
RIwP is a proven, modular, and scalable remote turret providing unmatched capacity to host multi-domain payloads for current and future ground-combat platforms. This remote weapon platform offers air defense, anti-armor, or multi-mission capabilities via world-class precision medium-caliber and indirect fires.
Designed to be weapon, sight, and platform agnostic, RIwP accommodates firepower growth to support future mission requirements. With survivability in mind the turret allows the warfighter to reload while under armor. This illustration depicts popular configurations to meet the full spectrum of remote turret related missions with a standard cupola being the centerpiece to build tailorable and reconfigurable “plug-and-play” weapons solutions.

RIwP Advantages
-
Commonality
The RIwP family of remote turrets shares 85% commonality of subcomponents with all configurations thereby minimizing logistical footprint size and sustainment costs, maximizing training efficiency, and reducing total cost of ownership.
-
Survivability
RIwP’s design allows the warfighter to reload the direct fire weapons from inside the vehicle under full armor protection. Options for add-on armor are available.
-
Field Reconfigurable
RIwP allows for pre-planned mechanical, electrical, and software interfaces to support the swapping of payloads. Payloads can be changed in minutes with organic maintenance personnel and minimal lift capability.
-
Proven Capability
RIwP is the centerpiece for the Army’s Maneuver Short Range Air Defense Increment 1 (M-SHORAD, Inc 1) program and is supporting numerous other government operational needs.
The Payload and Platform Agnostic RIwP
The RIwP has the ability to support a wide range of weapons and sights, RIwP can be built to fit your mission's purpose from air defense, anti-armor, to multi-mission situations. It can be fully customized and reconfigured in the field. Build your RIwP with current payloads today, knowing this remote weapon station can accommodate firepower growth to support future mission needs.
