30x173mm Oerlikon

This is the round used in the American A-10 Warthog.

Hi there,are you sure thats the original projectile? I was sure they were considerably longer than that...that projectile does look alot like a 30mm ADEN cannon round

Hi,you`re right,I found out it is an Aden projectile,so I made a dummy for my other case untill I can find a real one.

I used to collect just ordinance but decided to stick to WW2 so sold off alot of modern rounds I had...these arent pics of my old rounds but good examples for you too be able to spin a close one up

Very cool GAU8 round- the A10 has always been one of my most favourite airplanes

Something's wrong with that attachment Torch- do please fix it as I'd LOVE to see the big guy...

Not sure what I did there....
