The 35mm Oerlikon was most successful SPAAG in the world. Why? Good propellent charge, have good warheads for AA and Anti-Ground units (Have AT sabots and Anti-Infantry HE rounds). Belt-fed design that allows to build into the turrets (thus turn into SPAAV), and have good accuracy against air and ground units. The reason why Leo-Gepard choose 35mm, is their Electronic system, radar and the 35mm guns can create devastating effects against air and ground units. Typically, 35mm is a all rounder, balanced gun for AA and Anti-Ground gun.
chinese army paid for the basic module of GDF-002 and designed radar control system and programable round on their own the two non-self-porpelled anti air system still little in service is Chinese version 35 GDF and soviet 57mm S-60, both for air defense of anti air missle launch site the 35mm gdf are advanced enough against cruse missiles even now, and S-60 has the best ballistic and best speed of fire among all of AA cannons less than 75mm but larger than 40mm
Poland, or rather HSW to be more accurate, bought a license for KDA cannon. Unfortunately, it was built in very limited amounts and applied on rather experimental vehicles
what about the bofos gun. sure the company had a pretty story history and came close to bringing down an Indian prime minister. but that was a pretty famous weapon from sweden.
Was this the weapon that a female South African soldier accidently killed 8 of her fellow soldiers with, I believe she stepped on the firing mechanism ?
@@ryanfarmer4882 British have half sea-harrier and another hulf harrier on board carrier and Atlantic transporter support ship, at that time royal navy do not have enough harrier, so they borrowed some harrier from royal airforce, the two plane differs only in some modification for anti rust in sea, and for short deployment, they are the same plane so there are harriers

An excellent report on this beautiful and lethal weapon. In my city there is an army base that has them. Greetings from Argentina.
The ZU-23’s long lost Swiss brother
True 😊
Quite a bit bigger brother then.
23 mm? Try 35mm! The Swiss are best at making these. Oerlikon ring a bell?
@@chrismair8161 Hardly does that need to be said in a comment under a video about 35mm Oerlikon cannon.
Thanks for the video.
The 35mm Oerlikon was most successful SPAAG in the world.
Why?

Love the gepard , very useful for drones…again out of retirement
It is all so very effective against light armoured vehicles & infantry.
so cool
I wouldn't want to advance into twin barrelled 35mm fire either
I want one.

Awesome title for the video XD
The German made "Gepard" made total use of the twins! Get inside the 5km radius dome of the radar? A LOT of steel is entering your airspace!

I dunno I feel like it shares that spot with the HG85.
Mistral warship please
what about the bofos gun. sure the company had a pretty story history and came close to bringing down an Indian prime minister. but that was a pretty famous weapon from sweden.
The Indian gun wasn't the 40 mm anti-aircraft gun, but the 15.5 cm FH77 field howitzer :)
Bofors would like a word.....
Was this the weapon that a female South African soldier accidently killed 8 of her fellow soldiers with, I believe she stepped on the firing mechanism ?
The often repeated story was that it was a "system malfunction".....
I suppose the “female”part is extra important to you isn’t it little buddy...😂
@@shanehall6081it was
Wait, BOFORS, is pronounced "boo fush" ?
Can we trust that?
RAD
This is blasphemy. The second most popular Swiss weapon is actually the SIG series😂 Oerlikon? 3rd maybe
Not even close if you see countries that adopted it.
If talking raw numbers we are talking apples and oranges.
Bruh Oerlikon Is still Bigger than Sig ever was
How does it shoot down both a Harrier and a Sea Harrier when the Brits only had Sea Harriers down there?
@@ryanfarmer4882 British have half sea-harrier and another hulf harrier on board carrier and Atlantic transporter support ship, at that time royal navy do not have enough harrier, so they borrowed some harrier from royal airforce, the two plane differs only in some modification for anti rust in sea, and for short deployment, they are the same plane
so there are harriers
We had both Sea Harriers and Harrier GR.3s in the Falklands war.
The British had 42 aircraft (28 Sea Harriers and 14 Harrier GR.3s) available for air combat operations,
you lost me a Booo foooush... you lost my respect saying this did well in the Falkland's.
