Britain’s First Smoothbore Weapons Enter Production
Two Rheinmetall 120mm smoothbore L55A1 weapons for testing and trialling have now entered production at Unterluess facility, which would later be integrated onto the British Army’s modernized Challenger tanks.
Following production, the smoothbore guns will be integrated, tested and validated before delivery to Rheinmetall BAE Systems Land (RBSL) in the UK for integration with the new digital turret, the company said in a statement earlier this week.
