Abstract
The turret includes a hollow casing provided with a firearm, such as a cannon. The casing includes a front portion or shell, on which there is mounted the firearm and which defines a front cavity, which at least partially houses the firearm; and a rear portion or tail. The rear portion or tail defines a rear cavity, which houses at least one between a projectile magazine and a mechanism to load the projectiles into the breech of the firearm. The front portion or shell and the rear portion or tail are distinct from one another and are mutually mechanically assembled so that the cavities at least partially communicate with one another.
