ssidiver Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I saw this a few days ago and wondered why I can spot the Rheinmetall 20 mm MK 20 Rh 202 dual-feed cannon in the pic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major duck Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Because its the Recon version with the optics and an MG3 for self defence there are 3 versions to be upgraded The AT , The Recon and the 20mm version Those optics looks like those on the mast of the Fennec recon vehicle so i presume that's why but other her might know better MD Edited April 8, 2020 by Major duck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssidiver Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 It seems Jane's has removed the pic and it's caption. The caption read: Recon version with Rheinmetall 20 mm MK 20 Rh 202 dual-feed cannon. Hence my comment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted April 9, 2020 Members Share Posted April 9, 2020 "Rheinmetall and Heckler & Koch, in a joint venture, managed to dramatically shrink the weight and volume of the 20mm autocannon while retaining the high rate of fire. The 20mm cannon is now compatible with 7.62mm x 51 NATO ammunition." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
