Oerlikon Revolver Gun MK3-remotely controlled 35mm anti-aircraft gun intended for rapid and accurate response to air threats. The system is equipped with a radar of the tracking and the electro -optical touch unit. This enables her to find, track and strike goals with high accuracy. A unique feature of the cannon is the ability to process target data from 3D or 2D search radars and higher order management systems, which makes it possible to work autonomously.
One of the main features of this system is the integration of programmable ammunition of the Oerlikon Ahead airline. The shells are optimized to counteract a wide range of threats, including UAVs, rockets and artillery shells. The shells explode to the impact and scatter tungsten subbounds, which creates a cloud of fragments capable of neutralizing air targets with exceptional efficiency.
This feature provides accurate targeting and maximum effect against small air goals, which are often difficult to intercept. The exact number of Oerlikon Revolver Gun MK3, delivered to Ukraine is not officially confirmed. The guns were handed over to Ukraine by Switzerland via RheinMetall Air Defense, a subsidiary of RheinMetall AG, specializing in the advanced air defense systems.
Switzerland has traditionally adhered to the strict neutral policy, some of these systems have been put under re -export agreements with the participation of third countries, which allowed Ukraine to use advanced technology to strengthen air defense. Recall that the DPRK launched a new ballistic missile. Kim Jong -in called the test of a new bomb "proper military action" against the enemies of North Korea. It was also reported that the Armed Forces knocked out Russian air defense.
