Abstract

A gun system comprises a gun carried in a carriage, a supporting structure for the carriage having a construction which upon recoil of the gun permits the carriage to move with a controlled curved motion having a vertically upward component relative to the supporting structure. In one embodiment, the gun 1 is mounted in a cradle 3 and has its elevation varied by means of arms 11 the length of which is adjusted by means of a gearbox 17. In order to assist stabilisation of the system upon recoil of the gun, trunnions 5 at the rear of the cradle 3 are allowed to run up a track 7 (for low angles of elevation of the gun, eg below 30 DEG ). Return of the cradle 3 and gun 1 to the firing position may be assisted by return springs or recuperators (not shown). <IMAGE>
