Mobile Turret Mount HV-S

Description
This is an HV intended for use as a semi-permanent turret emplacement for defensive use. Put a turret on it. You can drive it to wherever you want, then remove the cockpit to reduce power usage. The concept is similar to mobile artillery (of the sort towed by a truck) except with turrets.

This is the S for Small version for small turrets. It has ammo container controllers and extenders in case you have volume limits enabled, and a decent amount of ammo space (250+375). This is enough to hold quite a bit of ammo for anything but maybe artillery shellls (it will hold something like 250 of those).

With the cockpit removed a full fuel tank will last quite some time like 50 hours.

For Artillery turrets, the HV-L and HV-LA versions are more useful as they have significantly more ammo space. (Of course that only matters if volume limits are enabled.)

It uses hover thrusters so doesn't make a very good vehicle, but this is enough to move it. It does have a hoverbooster (for getting unstuck from water) and a docking pad though. So it can be carried by a CV.
