Historical profile
Developed during the Croatian War of Independence by RH-Alan together with Đuro Đaković, at the initiative of General Janko Bobetko.
Uses the 20×110 mm cartridge from the Hispano-Suiza HS.404 aircraft cannon, intended against turret optics, periscopes and light vehicles.
A unique feature is a venturi tube above the barrel that channels part of the gases rearward to tame the brutal recoil of the 20 mm round.
