Abstract
In the turrets of tanks and other battle systems the ammunition is supposed to be stored in the ammunition bunker of the turret itself, in ammunition-stowage systems. Since tank turrets taper upward as a rule whereas the space available for storing ammunition should be completely exploited, the ammunition-stowage system as a whole can not be installed in the turret from above. To allow the ammunition-stowage system to be installed in the turret, the system is divided into three or four storage racks that can be installed individually in the turret from above. The outer storage racks widen outward in conformity with the slope of the side walls of the turret and have inwardly vertical demarcations, with the intermediate storage rack or intermediate storage racks having vertical demarcations or walls.
