DU-125 Muzzle Angle
Technology domain: Instrumentation
Categarization : Design & development
The DU-125 is an optical instrument that determines the muzzle angle of tank gun barrels.
The muzzle angle is defined as the angle between: The geometrical axis of the barrel bore (straight line connecting the breech and muzzle cross-sections), andThe straight tangent to the virtual axis of the bore at its muzzle end.
This measurement is critical for assessing barrel alignment and accuracy in armored vehicle weapon systems.
