The elevation rotation axis is oriented perpendicular to the azimuth rotation axis. The elevation tilt platform is rotationally coupled to the gimbal swing arm, and is configured to rotate about a tilt rotation axis. The tilt rotation axis is oriented parallel to the elevation rotation axis. The sensor is disposed on the elevation tilt platform. The sensor defines a line of sight.
