      Basically the majority of gun uses the same principle since ww2 and onward, there not much new invention since then, many are upgrade and inovation of the existing gun. Like how the bofor in the vidio is the mark 110 from a gun that was developed back in the 1970s.

      Absolutely correct! During the Falklands war/conflict. The RFA LSL Knights of the Round Table. Had two 40mm Bofors In two weapon pits at the bow. 11 Ciels Squadron Royal Engineers. Built stands for twin light machine guns. Recalibered BREN's also of WW2 vintage. For anti aircraft defence. Situated at the galley entrances and on the flight deck.On board the LSL Sir Bedivere. 1 Raiding Squadron Royal Marine Commandos also on board positioned their GPMG's on the gunnels. Amidships. This proved effective. A 1000lb "return to sender" bomb. Hit the ariels, crane and bow before going into the water without exploding. The ship was also credited with shooting down an Argentine Mirage. Most likely the Bofor's did the damage.

    I love your 3-D animation. As a mechanical engineer, I really appreciate the hard work that you created from scratch.
    If you or anyone else is interested in how the United States Sergeant York 40 mm anti aircraft tank of the 1980s way more complex feed system worked, I would love to describe it. It was my first job out of college and it was all done with paper and pencil. The tank could nearly 400 rounds of L70 40 mm rounds. Both HE and proximity fuse. I fully understand why the secretary of defense canceled it since Russia had long range missiles that would’ve taken it out very easily.

    • @Fury9er
      @Fury9er 4 месяца назад

      You designed the York's feed system? Yes I would love to learn about it, a video of it would be very interesting. I expect getting rounds fed into guns that could elevate was tricky if they used magazines. Am I right in thinking they were not belt linked? That DIVAD program had some interesting entries. I like SPAAGs in general!

    @watchthe1369 Год назад +19

    If you look at WW2 Bofors they alternated between 2 stack the sailors loaded, I expect with the ability to select which stack they "stripped" a round from that could likely be the simple change in rotation of the feeder would pick HE from the right, or AA frag from the left. Given the magazines can move too, the ready rounds could be a mix of 10 each of 4 different rounds. so you could have cheap solids and AP in in the mix. a 10 round burst off solids across the bow could probably reloaded with HE/AP depending on the target just threatened. Slick system, and that is what is in the turret, 80 ready rounds full of pain to go down range. Now the modern turret shape makes more sense.

      Typically, the empties are kicked out under the gun on a chute going forward. In this case there would be a hole in the front of the turret. I suppose there could be a system for collecting the empties in a bin, but it would have to be part of the mount, and from the cutaway view there doesn't appear to be enough room, so they're likely discarded overboard

    Anyone know what the short term rate of fire (e.g. the first 20 rounds) vs long term (e.g. until the ship runs out) is? What limits the long term rate; heat or being secured to load from the hoists?

    • @JH-lo9ut
      @JH-lo9ut Год назад

      I think they fall down into a shute that's located under the breech and barrel, and through that shute out on deck/overboard.
      Isn't that a huge waste of shell casings?, you ask...
      It is a waste. But considering you are running a war ship, that's an extremely expensive operation already, it is ridiculous to try to save a few bucks on shell casings. Maybe they have some kind of net to catch the casings during gunnery practice.
      The problem with catching casings, is that they are very hot, they give off toxic fumes, and they pile up quickly.
      It becomes an engineering problem i itself, to construct a system that safely catches the casings. It's just not worth it in a war situation.

    That's all ...nice! - but ...can you reload the secondary "bins" while the gun is firing? ...'cause from the looks of it, this gun has to stop firing and realign the gun at least twice when replenishing rounds? Does the mechanism that allows those "cassettes" to be replenished work also while the gun is firing or does it have to wait until the whole "cycle" is done & all the mags are empty??
