A weapon mount is a StarCitizen:vehicle component that holds one or more pilot-aimed vehicle weapons.<ref name="hardpoints">Template:Cite RSI</ref> The category covers single-weapon gimbal mount adapters as well as multi-weapon ball, nose, and canard housings.

Gimbal mounts are the standard configuration on most ships and turrets; a gimbal mount carries a weapon of the same size as the hardpoint it occupies.
