How to give my cannon model upwards rotation

[little basin]

I have a cannon model that I found on the internet and my aiming system requires it to go up but i'm not sure how to seperate the base from the actual cannon part and how to get it to move upwards bear in mind the model is on the head of an armor stand

this is the cannon model here do you have any idea how to split the model and make the metal bit move upwards i know the commands its the model side that confuses me

this is how to would look without any polish so roughly in blockbench not sure if i need a seperate armor stand for the cannon barrel or what lol do you guys have any ideas

or if theres an easier way to show upwards angling of the cannon im not sure you guys are the experts im new to all this loll

you'd need 2 seperate models and have 2 seperate armor stands for that (or you adjust hte display settings of the base so it can hold it in the hand for example, then you'd only need one armor stand to hold/wear the 2 item models)

I could try 2 seperate models with a spawn egg

that runs my datapack function
