Abstract
A weapons system (10) with at least one barrel (12) is provided, wherein the barrel is arranged on a weapon carrier (14) which is mounted by trunnions (16) between cradle supports (18), and its elevation is adjustable. A separate ammunition container (26, 28), which is connected to the corresponding barrel (12) by an ammunition feed canal (22, 24), is associated with the barrel (12). The ammunition feed canal (22, 24) has a rigid first canal partial section (36, 44) and a rigid second canal partial section (38, 46), which are connected to one another via arc-shaped connection end sections (40, 42; 48, 50). The connection end sections (40, 42; 48, 50) are provided at the corresponding trunnion (16) such that the connection between the barrel (12) and the associated ammunition container (26, 28), and consequently excellent ammunition feed, are guaranteed in any desired elevation position.
