Oto Melara Hitfist is a two-man turret for armored vehicles developed by the Italian Oto Melara company. [1] The turrets are designed to mount a 25mm Oerlikon KBA or 30/40mm ATK Mk44 Bushmaster II autocannon. The main armament may mount a co-axial machine gun. A variant allows the operator to aim and fire anti-tank missiles.
