United States
30 mm/75 (1.2") EX-74 and Emerlec-30
Updated 29 September 2006
This mounting was originally developed by Emerson Electric as the EX-74 and was intended to arm the US CPIC coastal patrol boats, of which only a single prototype was ever built.  The CPIC boat used a GFCS Mark 93 which incorporated the Kollmorgen Mark 35 periscope director.

With the cancellation of the US CPIC program, Emerson then further developed this weapon into an export version and has successfully sold them around the world.

This weapon system uses the Oerlikon 30 mm/75 KCB cannon which is also used on the British GCM and LS-30B weapon systems.
