Teledyne Low Profile Turret

Here are some materials related to the Teledyne Continental Motors Low Profile Turret.  This system was developed in the mid 80's as part of the US Army Armored Gun System (AGS) program.  Teledyne developed a lightweight hull for this system which came to be known as the "expeditionary tank."  Teledyne also marketed the low profile turret as an upgrade solution for older vehicles such as the M60, Centurion, T-55 and AMX30.  When that branch of Teledyne (Teledyne Continental Motors General Products Division) was sold to General Dynamics in the mid 90's, GD took the low profile turret and adopted it for the Stryker as the M1128 Mobile Gun System.

Edit: I found this document showing the early prototype for the Low Profile Turret on the LAV.

Here is a chart showing distribution of probable attack directions on an M60 with Low Profile Turret

This chart compares the cost (circa 1995) of a conventional M60 upgrade versus upgrading the M60 with the Low Profile Turret. 

Centurion upgrades with Low Profile Turret.

The above Centurion hull still sits outside the former Teledyne plant in Muskegon MI (currently operated by L3)

Nearby to the Centurion lies the remains of the Expeditionary Tank hull.  It sits next to a M-47 with modified engine compartment.
