Abstract
A remote weapon system (RWS) for an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) includes a dedicated weapon, multi-axis gimbal and ammunition handling capabilities with all operations functioning remotely and wirelessly. The RWS comprises system-level and component-level safety features which preclude the weapon of the remote weapon system from being operable if removed from the remote weapon system.
