RWS vs. Manned turrets.

Check out this video from Rafael.  At the 1:40 mark it clearly shows the dirty little secret behind unmanned turrets.  They free up space under armor and save weight.  Marine Corps doctrine wants vehicle commanders with their heads up and out of the turret searching for targets.  Maybe times have changed.  The benefits that come with remote weapons stations outnumber the benefits brought by manned systems.
