The MKE 120 mm tank gun is a Turkish 120 mm 55 caliber smoothbore gun based on CN08 120 mm gun produced by the Turkish company Mechanical and Chemical Industry Corporation , used on the Turkish Altay tank.[1] in ) gun has a length of 6.6 meters (22 ft ). The gun can fire ammunition with high muzzle velocity . The gun is made of chrome-plated "special steel".[1]
Background
The MKE 120 mm gun was produced by transferring 120 mm 55 caliber smoothbore gun production technology from Hyundai WIA in South Korea through the Altay tank development project from 2008 to 2015.[2] [3] [4] [5] MKE modified the design per Altay requirements and produce the gun under license.[5]
The design of the tank gun is the same as CN08, but there are two differences: unlike CN08, thermal sleeve is equipped with Static Muzzle Reference System (SMRS), and Altay's turret does not have breech opening motor and automatic feeding magazine system for autoloader mechanism, so ammunition can only be loaded manually by tank crew and can fire up to 6 rounds a minute.
Ammunition
120 ammunitions by MKE: APFSDS (left), HEAT (second left), discarding sabot of APFSDS (middle). Other two are 155 mm ammunitions.
The gun can fire various types of tank ammunitions including MKE made APFSDS -T, TPCSDS-T Training and High Pressure.[6] Roketsan made TANOK gun-launched 120 mm laser guided anti-tank missile with range of 1-6 km.[7] 120×570 mm NATO tank ammunition.
