Dénes Bernád (1 aprilie 2007) The Hungarians also built this cannon under licence. Here are the technical specs.: DESCRIPTION: light antiaircraft and antitank cannon SHORT HISTORY: the 4.0 cm Bofors antiaircraft guns were widely licensed and used during the Second World War (US Navy, Soviet Army, British Army), as they were probably the best in their category. Hungary bought the license in 1936, and MAVÁG manufactured them until 1945. The gun was used both as a towed antiaircraft piece, and in self-propelled Nimróds as both antitank and antiaircraft. Manufacturer: DIMÁVAG Manufacturer's designation: 4.0 cm Bofors Model 36 Years of production: 1938-1945 Honvédség's designation: 36 M könnyü légvédelmi ágyú Number in inventory: 534+363+135 for Nimróds (1938-1944) Caliber: 40.0 mm Length of the barrel: 2,250 mm Muzzle velocity: 850 m/sec Range - horizontal: 7,000 m Range – vertical: 3,000 m Elevation: -5o, +85o Traverse: 360o Weight of the gun: 2,100 kg Weight of the projectile: 0.95 kg (HE) Rate of fire: 120 rounds/min. Magazine: straight, 8 rounds Towing mode: light trucks Note: Could fire also armor-piercing rounds, and so could be used against ground targets. Very modern construction, excellent properties, light. In 1944, 42/a M armour piercing stick grenades used for anti-tank role (9.2 kg total weigh, 2.6 kg explosive charge, muzzle velocity 105 m/s, max. range 700 m, effective range 200 m, capable to penetrate 160-180 mm armor). Orders placed: 112+186+16+64+17+215+450=1084 pcs. (of this number 150 were for German export. Of this, 60 pcs. were returned by the Germans for defense of Transylvania in Sept. 1944).
Dénes Bernád (1 aprilie 2007) AFAIK, the manufacturer's designation was 4.0 cm Bofors Light Antiaircraft Cannon, Model 36.
Wesley Thomas (16 martie 2007) It is difficult to imagine this weapon being designated "M-1930" in Romanian service as the first land service Bofors guns did not go into service until 1934-1935 (the M-1934 [Bofor's own designation] was the first of the land service Bofors guns built after the Dutch Navy took delivery of some naval mounts in 1932).
