Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mobile gun system. The mobile gun system comprises a chassis and a gun barrel mounted to the chassis such that when a projectile is fired from the gun barrel a recoil force causes recoil movement of the chassis. The mobile gun system further comprises a braking system for retarding the recoil movement of the chassis due to the recoil force from the firing of the projectile from the gun barrel. The mobile gun system further comprises a controller configured to control the braking system to retard said recoil movement of the chassis after a peak loading condition due to the firing of the projectile has passed. The present disclosure also relates to a method of operating a mobile gun system.
