ABSTRACT:
A system for automatically loading ammunition into the barrel of a gun, in particular of a tank gun, includes a delivery block which supports a cradle on which is laid ammunition withdrawn from a magazine. The system also includes a device for displacing the delivery block so as to align the ammunition along the axis of the barrel of the gun. A first drive device is included for axially displacing the cradle with respect to the delivery block to bring the ammunition into the vicinity of the entrance of the barrel of gun. A second drive device axially displaces the ammunition with respect to the cradle so as to engage the ammunition inside the barrel.
