Oscillating turret
An oscillating turret is a form of turret for armoured fighting vehicles, both tanks and armoured cars. The turret is unusual in being made of two hinged parts. Elevation of the gun relies on the upper part of the turret moving relative to the lower part. Oscillating turrets have rarely been used. Their only widespread use was on two French designs (the AMX-13 light tank and the Panhard EBR armoured car), the Swedish 15,5 cm Bandkanon-1 self-propelled artillery system, and the Austrian SK-105 Kürassier, which uses an AMX-13 derived turret.
