Ordnance, RCL, 3.45 in

From Warlike

Q7100870




The 3.45 inch RCL was an 88 mm British recoilless weapon, designed by Sir Dennis Burney during the Second World War. Delayed by problems due to breech wear because of gas erosion upon firing, it did not see action, as was hoped, in the Far East, particularly Burma. However, it did lead to the post-war Mobat and Wombat recoilless rifles.
