Rapid Fire - The Development of Automatic Cannon, Heavy Machine Guns and their Ammunition for Armies, Navies and Air Forces
Year: 1999 Language: english Author: Anthony G. Williams Genre: Technical book Publisher: AirLife Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 323 Description: The question any author is likely to be asked (or, indeed, to ask himself) is, 'Why write this book?' In my case the answer goes back to my student days more than thirty years ago. when I first took up competitive rifle shooting. This sparked an interest in the weapons themselves and in the ammunition they used. The interest developed over the years (somewhat patchily. as career demands intervened) and extended to cover the range of military technology - but always with guns and ammunition at the core. After a while this interest became combined with an enthusiasm for writing and a series of articles for various magazines followed, on such diverse subjects as hunting rifles, military small arms, anti-tank rifles, heavy machine guns, automatic cannon, aircraft armament, naval guns and even battleship design.
