Leonardo presented the M60A3 overhaul and upgrade solution at BIDEC 2017. The company offers improved lethality, mobility and crew survivability through a modular solution which integrates a new 120/45 mm main gun with a Fire Control System (FCS) featuring day and night 3rd generation thermal imagers, a set of modern protection systems and an upgrade of the power pack.
The solution also integrates a new multi-purpose, combat-proven, stabilized Remote Controlled Weapon Station (RCWS) “Hitrole” and allows a full 360° panoramic surveillance capability with an improved cooled infrared sighting system. Automatic Fire and Explosion Sensing and Suppressing system (AFSS) improves soldier survivability, providing protection against modern threats.
