Swedish 25 m/m Bofors

[Bockscar]

Seeing as how popular the Swedish 20 and 25 m/m threads have been over time, I though I would put up some pictures of a 25 m/m Bofors naval twin gun mounting aboard the newly refurbished Swedish torpedo boat T-38.
The images were supplied to me by my friend in Sweden, as part of a discussion we were having concerning Swedish automatic weapons and were taken at the Karlskrona naval base.
Permission to use the images here was sought and freely given, with thanks.

Thanks for those.

I have a Bofors catalogue and have posted some 25mm photos from it in my article here (see below): http://www.quarry.nildram.co.uk/Bofors.htm

The fixed single mounting was designed for submarines, with a retractable mounting. The mobile land mounting apparently never saw service.

Tony,

I was going to insert these images in one of the 25 m/m Bofors threads, but in the end decided on "The Guns" section.
Thanks too for the images of the other versions of this system - most interesting indeed.
