. RMK 30, Most Advanced 30mm cannon In The World....No Recoil, World's First And Only Made by Mauser Company, Germany. 1 A recoilless 30mm weapon, the first and only in the world , almost entirely compensates the recoil impulse by taking advantage of the gases streaming out backwards while firing. In the design of the RMK 30, this has been achieved by a moveable cartridge chamber and an attached nozzle. 2. As it is recoilless, it can be installed on very light platforms such as soft skin vehicles which in the past could not be fitted with a weapon of this calibre. Another world's first and only of it's kind. 3. Apart from being a recoiiless design, the RMK 30 has a number of other special or unique features including: • Three chamber revolver type breech cylinder • Moveable cartridge chamber • Linkless ammunition feeding • Selection options Left or right hand ammunition feed • Telescoped ammunition with a compact charge • Combustible case and inductive primer. • Accurate and sustained firing with dispersion patterns of less than 50 per cent, superior in comparison with other conventional cannon. • Single shot sniper mode option selction • Short burst firing option selection • Up to 300 rpm fire rate variable option selection in full automatic mode According to Mauser, RMK 30 can be also be used as part of a complete integrated weapon system which, with a number of other subsystems including tracker, thermal imager, fire-control computer, stabilised mirror, laser range-finder and gyro. RMK 30 is the world's first and only recoiless 30mm cannon, and most advanced 30mm gun http://www.army-guide.com/eng/product3602.html . 1 Like

agaugust: Pointless... RMK3 isn't used on any platform nor it is being produced. Only thing was that it was tested on Wiesel, but that's about it... I can see it being expensive to shoot...

1. TROOPS CLEARS BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS OUT OF DOKSA 2. US is sending in Special Forces to work with the Nigerian armed forces. The deployment came out of a confidential study completed by Brig. Gen. Donald C. Bolduc, the head of Special Operations for Africom (African Command), who pressed for the deployment of Special Forces in non-combat advise-and-train missions. The Nigerians will also likely soon be given the green light to purchase US Cobra helicopters from Israel. In mid-February, Gen. David Rodriguez, head of Africom, hosted Nigeria’s chief of defense staff Gen. Abayomi Garbiel Olonisakin in Stuttgart, Germany at Africom headquarters. 3.OPINION: America can keep itz help to itself. When Nigeria really needed their help years back, they were busy abusing and insulting the Nigerian army. All of a sudden we are best buddies now, they are now gifting us special forces and cobra attack helicopters. What exactly has changed ![]() http://mebriefing.com/?p=2193 5 Likes

agaugust: What you fail to grasp is: - YOU say the RMK 30 is the worlds most advanced - Army Guide says the CAM GUN is the worlds most advanced The opinion of Army Guide trumps yours. Lets keep things factual and lets not argue because of personal biases. This is the last post I shall make on this topic. Pic: Denels plans to produce a regional air-liner 2 Likes

M14A1: Nothing wrong with the Eagle Mk3 It is certainly better than the T-55's you have, and unlike the T-72s you guys bought it can fire HESH which is IMO the best round for these kind of wars. While the 105mm is not a disadvantage since you arent planning on fighting any tanks! I hope to see Nigeria modernize the Vickers fleet. They are quality tanks, with lots of room for growth. It would be a shame to see them go into permanent storage when this is over. 1 Like

patches689: T-55 has more armor and Vietnam upgraded them to the point that is competitive to T-72. Anyway, I tried to find any information about Olifant 1b and MK2 armor, could find anything thus I am guessing that since original Olifant has thicker armor that the Crusader that is based on... Difference in size betwen original Olifant and MK2 due to added armor which also uses composite and spaced armor concept is used... Maybe 500 mm RHA tops on front of the turret? If so then 105, even with duranium/tungsten head wont penetrate if above 450 mm RHA. T-72 would need AP round for favourable outcome. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by patches689: 5:06am On Mar 06, 2016 |
croat: Olifant has composit armor on the front glacis and spaced on the turret. Pic related, you can see the composit armor bolted on to the front glacis (part infront of the driver) and you can see the spacing under the turret I am talking about the Vickers Mk3 Aka: Eagle Tank. When I look at it I see huge potention of modernization - and Nigeria has enough (~100) for modernization to be economically feasible. Does anyone have any images of Kenyan Vickers Mk3's in Somalia??

patches689:Well Fire power doesn't equate armour, which is in relation to my post. Good gun great rounds, but it's armour is obsolete. There is a reason Nigeria had 200+ of the vickers but opted for T72, to prosecute the war |

M14A1: From what I have read, it is rated against 30mm all round and RPG's on the front glacis. Thats all you really need against BH. |
