Abstract: A weapon mount includes a platform with a weapon mounted thereto and a swing arm subsystem attached to a port wall. The swing arm subsystem moves the platform between a concealed position within the port and a deployed position through the port. The preferred swing arm subsystem includes an axle, a bracket for the axle mounted to the port wall, at least one coupling about the axle, and a rotating strut extending between the coupling and the platform to swing the platform and weapon forward through the port and rearward back into the port.
