20 x 145R Bofors

[Tony Williams]

Does anyone have any data on the loadings for this round? Projectile types, weights and MVs. The weight of propellant powder would be appreciated as well.

Thanks for any help.

Hope this is of some use.

Also keep in mind those for the subcaliber barrels.

Sweden and Germany also made steel cases.

It is indeed - many thanks!

Thanks for that - do you have details of the sub-cal loadings?

I have a data sheet of sub-cal loadings but didn't find it right away. If nobody else can post it here soon, remind me Tony and I'll search deeper in my files.

Tony, not on hand. I have seen them in a collection and there were quite some wehn taken all together.

All those pictures from the Swedish ammo catalogs are very nice, but only show the colour schemes.
Here some internal views (all for 20mm m/40-70 AA-gun).

Terrific stuff! Do you have anything similar for the 25mm Bofors?

 

[Defender]

Stuff on 25 mm Bofors is very rare (as the rounds are). I only know these drawings here -> http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/76503-25x205R-Bofors
(maybe you remember)

Now some projos for 20x145R subcaliber devices (20 mm m/40 tubkanon).

Thanks for those - I had forgotten about the earlier thread (it was more than three years ago, after all…. :tinysmile_cry_t2: )

 

[Defender]

I had forgotten about ...

Don't worry. I'm very familiar with this, too ;-)
