Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009030385A2] The aim of the invention is to provide an ammunition supply system that does not come from a turret (1 ) or an ammunition magazine. Said type of ammunition supply system (6) is mounted completely or partially about the periphery of the turret (1). Said ammunition supply (6) comprises at least one ammunition channel (10, 11) that is filled with ammunition (5), a drive (13) for transporting the ammunition (5) that is integrated if the weapon (3) is not configured for extracting the ammunition (5) itself. If this is the case, a continuous chain (12), that can be displaced in two axes, interacts with the drive (13). This enables the ammunition (5) to be transported about the radii (R) of the turret (1 ).
