The Fjernstyrt Tårn (Remote Tower) is a family of remote weapons systems (RWS) developed and manufactured by Forente Forsvar Landsystemer of Trinovantum. The first models were adopted for Trinovantan service in 2001 as the FjT-1, and later received the export name “Sentinel.” In 2010, FFLS developed a new series of enclosed, modular automated turrets that could potentially be fitted to heavier vehicles. These remote turrets were given the export name “Warrior” to differentiate them from the lighter “Sentinel” RWS series, though they are considered part of the same product family.
