Product Description

M1151 CROWS Heavy Hummer, Enhanced Armament Carrier.

Arsenal-M 114200231, Resin 1/87 Kit Unfinished.

The M1151 CROWS (Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station) is an improved version of the standard Humvee (HMMWV). The M1151 HMMWV has a heavier chassis and improved engine to handle add-on armor. It is built on an Expanded Capacity Vehicle chassis, which allows for more passengers or additional supplies (up to 2,300 lbs).

The CROWS system is operated with a joystick and computer screen, down inside the vehicle it’s mounted to. The exact position varies with vehicle. In the Humvee, the gunner’s behind the driver’s seat. In something like the Stryker or Abrams, the CROWS operator is wherever the soldier was previously, just with an extra screen.

They’re reloaded similarly to the weapon they make use of. That is to say, the belt is replaced. If it runs out of ammunition, then you’re clearly in an extremely bad situation, because the ammo capacity of a CROWS is huge. For instance, it carries ready to use, 400 rounds of ammunition for the M2 fitting. One of the regular boxes the M2 uses on when mounted to say, a Humvee, or roadblock, has something like 100.

What the goal -is-, and what the CROWS accomplishes, is allowing the vehicle to return fire with exponentially less risk to the gunner. A guy in a humvee turret is exceptionally venerable, particularly in a shooting war where artillery is a concern.
