Brilliant. You can see the Bofors design characteristics back to the WW2 era 40mm Bofors.

Basically the majority of gun uses the same principle since ww2 and onward, there not much new invention since then, many are upgrade and inovation of the existing gun. Like how the bofor in the vidio is the mark 110 from a gun that was developed back in the 1970s. Well I am gonna be that guy and say sorry now

What a gun the Bofors has turned out to be. First produced for the Swedes in 1930 it has stood the test of time and war to prove itself a superbly brilliant weapon. And its story isn't finished yet!!

Absolutely correct! During the Falklands war/conflict. The RFA LSL Knights of the Round Table. Had two 40mm Bofors In two weapon pits at the bow. 11 Ciels Squadron Royal Engineers. Built stands for twin light machine guns. Recalibered BREN's also of WW2 vintage. For anti aircraft defence. Situated at the galley entrances and on the flight deck.On board the LSL Sir Bedivere. 1 Raiding Squadron Royal Marine Commandos also on board positioned their GPMG's on the gunnels. Amidships. This proved effective. A 1000lb "return to sender" bomb. Hit the ariels, crane and bow before going into the water without exploding. The ship was also credited with shooting down an Argentine Mirage. Most likely the Bofor's did the damage.

this is really a clever innovation over the classic bofors magazine fed system from wwii, you keep the mature system, and replace the part of using manpower to fed the magazine with machine, i like this kind of combining the old and new.
Should have included the spent shell casing ejection in the animation.
Alright, now, how do those four stacks get distributed to the one breech? That's what I want to see next.

As someone who served in the Navy, I got to see that cannon in action during scheduled drills that were conducted to ensure it was seaworthy, as well as simply operating at peak condition. Whenever you were walking anywhere in the ship, and that thing went off, you could feel the vibrations throughout the ship go up your feet. And we all wear heavy steel toed, black leather boots!!

If you look at WW2 Bofors they alternated between 2 stack the sailors loaded, I expect with the ability to select which stack they "stripped" a round from that could likely be the simple change in rotation of the feeder would pick HE from the right, or AA frag from the left. Given the magazines can move too, the ready rounds could be a mix of 10 each of 4 different rounds. so you could have cheap solids and AP in in the mix. a 10 round burst off solids across the bow could probably reloaded with HE/AP depending on the target just threatened. Slick system, and that is what is in the turret, 80 ready rounds full of pain to go down range. Now the modern turret shape makes more sense.

@@dundonrl the 40mm and 57mm are multi purpose gun systems. "Bofors claims that with 120 ready rounds the system can sufficiently engage 1 to 2 surface targets and 4 sea skimming missiles." It's used by the US navy and many navies around the world to engage missiles. A missile going below the speed of sound is not a extreme challenge for the borfors with 3P ammuition.

Typically, the empties are kicked out under the gun on a chute going forward. In this case there would be a hole in the front of the turret. I suppose there could be a system for collecting the empties in a bin, but it would have to be part of the mount, and from the cutaway view there doesn't appear to be enough room, so they're likely discarded overboard

The fact that it is fixed and required a stationary gun to get the ammunition up there leads me to believe that no crew is involved in filling the ammunition host. If the system would rotate with the gun, it would be much more challenging to design a system without any crew involved, but it would result in shorter breaks for reloading as you could move ammunition into the ready magazines in the gun while the gun is still fireing at other targets.

Each have their advantages. The manual hopper loading would allow you to continuously fire until the barrels melt, ammunition runs out, or the enemy breaks. The problem is just how much manpower it took to sustain any amount of cyclic firing at ~500-550 rounds per minute for the quad-40s. The autoloader removes the need for all that supporting manpower, but also removes the ability to sustain cyclic rate if the situation demands.
