Therefore, one advantage of the these weapons is that the average reaction force acting on the weapon is approximately zero, meaning that the user is not subjected to any force resulting from the firing process. At the same time, the firing gas pressure in the barrel when firing is well approximated by one order of magnitude less than with conventional guns, and therefore the wall thickness of the barrel is also lower. On the other hand, they have the dis- advantage that the charge energy used to create the equi- librium pulse is actually a waste job, so that the thermal efficiency of the shot is significantly worse than conven- tional shotguns. The M4 is loaded from behind. When fill- ing, the venturi tube can be swivel-mounted

The Argentines have 54 of these vehicles on hand at present, though they do not currently have plans to manufacture more. In this role, the turret is removed, and in its place is a hump-backed rear with a set of large hatches, which are opened when the mortar is to be fired. What is normally the rear cargo area is taken up by the mortar, a turntable built into the floor of the vehicle, a special bipod and sight assembly designed for the vehicle, and ammunition racks. However, the VCTM carries only a limited amount of ammunition and charges internally (like almost all mortar carriers) and during most extended firing missions, the VCTM is fed by crewmembers manning ammunition stacks and charge containers outside the rear doors of the vehicle, who attach the charges to the rounds according to the range required and then pass them by hand to the assistant gunner (the crewmember who actually drops the round down the tube).

Most of the design work was done by Germany’s Thyssen-Krupp AG, who had already developed the TAM light tank for Argentina. The idea of an APC based on the TAM chassis was the idea of the Argentine Army, and this was done to decrease the cost of the VCTP as well as the cost of maintenance by producing a vehicle that had a large percentage of parts that were the same as the TAM. It also meant that mechanics trained to work on the TAM could be quickly trained to also work on the VCTP, and a driver who could drive a TAM could drive a VCTP. The Argentine Army originally intended to replace all of their APCs and many of its scout vehicles with the VCTP, for a total of 350 VCTPs and VCPCs; however, only 210 (of all versions) were actually produced, due to budgetary problems.

Notes: Sometimes simply called the Piranha IIIC CBRN, this vehicle is used to find, fix, mark, and take samples of possible areas contaminated by Nuclear, Chemical, or Biological agents or by sheer radiation. The Piranha III CBRN is equipped with a full navigation suite, including GPS and navigation as well as a mapping module designed to display maps of the areas into which the Piranha III CBRN is expected to scout. Marking is done by three flag dispensers on the rear of the hull (one for chemical, bio, or radiation/fallout). It can shoot through an internally-triggered roof-mounted mortar sensors to extend its reach, and these sensors remain online for 40 hours through the use of a battery, and transmits its findings continuously to the Piranha III CBRN over a range of 40 kilometers. The mortar is fed by sliding the sensors into the breech or the mortar, which extends into the vehicle and provides an airtight lockout.

He put a remarkable amount of effort and modelling skill into creating an exquisite 1:32 Spitfire Mk. IXc of 412 (RCAF) Sqn, piloted by F/Lt George ‘Buzz’ Beurling in 1944.

Okay, nobody wrote in demanding our heads on pikes outside the castle walls, so that’s a good thing. Why, you may ask? The last issue of RT got to you about a month late (I think this is the first time this has happened since I came back onboard as editor) . Nevertheless, I want to extend my apologies to you all on that delay. We had a few small problems that tumbled together which resulted in getting the decals finalized, printed and delivered, along with the RT going through the same kind of last-minute challenges. The articles and the decals generated favourable comments from the members who provided their feedback (we love hearing from you!) , and I want to thank you for your understanding and patience while we work these things out and try and keep the trains running on time.
