The Royal Ordnance L7, officially designated Gun 105 mm Tk L7, is the basic model of the United Kingdom's most successful tank gun.

The L7 is a 105 mm L/52 rifled design by the Royal Ordnance Factories intended for use in armoured fighting vehicles, replacing the earlier 20-pounder (84 mm) tank gun mounted on the Centurion tank.
The successful L7 gun has been fitted on many armoured vehicles including the British Centurion (starting from the Mk. 5/2 variant), the German Leopard 1 and early variants of the US M1 Abrams.

The L7 is a popular weapon and continued in use even after it was superseded by the L11 series 120 mm rifled tank gun.
The L7, and adaptations of it, can be found as standard or retrofitted equipment on a wide variety of tanks developed during the Cold War.

500m/s projectile velocity, max range of 5000m at 8RPM
It will penetrate 3.5 blocks of small grid heavy armour equivalent on hit.

Remember to have "Use conveyors" toggle-able via toolbar as to let the gun draw ammo if conveyored. I have no idea why this is not in the control panel.

Big thanks to Whiplash141 for making the penetration framework! Without his work, none of these mods would have been possible.
Credit to Klime for the shell ejection and recoil script.

Edit: This seems to be the same for lots of other tank guns.

Doesn't seem to work anymore. It has no animation, ridiculous recoil, and it barely does any damage. Please fix AWG!

120mm to 125mm
105mm to 100mm
90mm to 85mm

the collection is complete!

now if both 120mm(the rifled and smoothbore) have the newest penetration code I can finally tune all the value to my liking in .sbc files for my own world setting :steamhappy:
