Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW) developed the Autonomous Gun Module (AGM), a modular, air transportable unmanned turret which can be installed on various land based and naval platforms. Weighing 12.5 tons, the AGM turret is self contained with a 155mm /39 Caliber gun, automatic loading system and a supply of 30 projectiles and a corresponding amount of charge modules. The AGM fits the dimensions and weight to provide operational mobility with the future A400M transport aircraft. The first AGM system demonstrator has already been implemented on the MLRS chassis which is in service with many NATO countries. The total weight of an MLRS deployed self propelled AGM is 27 tons. AGM uses automatic gun aiming and autonomous loading system, ramming the shell and charges required for the mission. During recent test firings, the system demonstrated a rate of fire of six rounds per minute.
