CIWS Air Defense Turret

Description
A simple Air Defense Turret. Heavy Industry DLC is only for the support beams on the front of the Gatling, Automation DLC is for the top-mounted camera. Both can be replaced with vanilla parts, don't forget to reassign the camera if you do end up replacing it.

Turret Controller is accessible in the base of the turret. Antenna, Remote Control, and Battery are also stored in the base. So far as I know there's no way to add additional charge into the on-board battery without a fairly big redesign, a flaw I didn't realize until I started writing this description.
The white segment where the RADAR would be located located in the real life model is instead filled with 3 storage containers meant for ammo.

Side note: vertical aiming is inverted in manual mode (a quirk I didn't notice until it was too late), but this doesn't seem to affect the turret's AI.
