SAM Turrets, or Surface-to-Air Missile Turrets, are effective ways to take down enemy aircraft from the ground.
The first mention in history of a surface to air missile was by inventor Dr. Gustav Rasmus in 1931, in which a missile would home in on an aircraft by sound, with intentions to destroy the aircraft. Development of surface-to-air missiles began in Nazi Germany during late World War II with explosive missiles that seek and destroy any aircraft within range. nitial performance goals were target intercept at a horizontal range of 10 miles and 30,000 feet altitude, with a 300 to 600 pound explosive warhead for a 30 to 70 percent kill probability. Heavy ship losses due to Kamikaze attacks during the Battle of Okinawa provided additional incentive for guided missile development.
Modern SAM weapons are more mobile than they were during World War II. Most SAM Missiles are mounted on tanks, ships, trucks, submarines, and even carried by infantrymen. They aren't cheep, but they are effective.

The tragic misuse and over use of turrets in contemporary residential architecture, where a house inexplicably speaks a turret for no particular reason.
Not to be confused with Tourette syndrome.

Did you see that awful house they are building down the street. It has a bad case of turret syndrome.

A man named Wesley, whom of which is a chubby chaser. Prefers girls that are a little on the husky side, and likes to awkwardly pat her butt. She of course does'nt encourage this action but nothing can stop the Turret Ninja.

The XR500 Turret is a skin that can be obtained from a Premium Skin Crate. It wields an mounted M249 to attack enemies. The XR500 Turret's humanoid is the only yellow-skinned humanoid in the game.
It is also the only Turret skin to have an April Fools 2020 Face (Default and XR300 did not have a humanoid.)

Pee Turreting
Derived from: Wet Betrayal
Lake and MUJI were calmly sitting at the C2 Parking until Light came to annoy the fuck out of them so MUJI used Lake as a Pee Turret to chase her away.
