The Quickscope remote weapon station (RWS) are a series of Chilokveri remote weapon stations designed and produced by Xianzai Arsenal for the ship-based protection role. The Quickscope was based upon the Killstreak RWS, a series of vehicle-mounted RWS manufactured by the same developer. Similar to the Killstreak, the Quickscope series of remote weapon stations are configurable with a variety of different weapons depending on user preference. As of 2019, over 270 units of the Quickscope and its lightweight variant the Mini Quickscope were in service with the Grand Chilokveri Navy.
