Automatic Cannon RH 503

The Rh 503 is the first externally powered machine cannon developed in Europe. Its reliability in operation is completely independent of gas pressure level.

The various types of cartridges - the standard 35 mm cartridge and the 50 mm "Supershot" - can be fired without any internal modification of the gun.

Initially, the Rh 503 fires performance improved ammunition of the standardised calibre 35 mm x 228. By merely changing the barrel, the Rh 503 system is capable of improving its performance up to 50 percent by firing a more powerful ammunition in a new 50 mm x 330 calibre, called the "Supershot".
