The navy approached Bofors about the development of a more capable replacement, and Bofors signed a contract in late 1928. The company produced a gun that was a smaller version of a 57 mm (6-pounder) semi-automatic gun, developed as an anti-<a href="/wiki/Torpedo_boat" title="Torpedo boat">torpedo boat</a> weapon in the late 19th century by <a href="/w/index.php?title=(Finsp%C3%A5ng_(company)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="(Finspång (company) (page does not exist)">Finspång</a>.

A mechanism that was strong enough to handle the stresses of moving the large <a href="/wiki/Cartridge_(firearms)" title="Cartridge (firearms)">round</a> was too heavy to operate quickly enough to fire rapidly. One attempt to solve the problem used <a href="/wiki/Zinc" title="Zinc">zinc</a> shell cases that burned up when fired. However, that left heavy zinc deposits in the barrel and had to be abandoned. In the summer of 1930, experiments were conducted with a new test gun that did away with controlled feed and instead flicked the spent casing out the rear, after which a second mechanism reloaded the gun by "throwing" a fresh round into the open breech from the magazine. That improved firing rates to an acceptable level, so work on a prototype commenced soon after. </p><p>During that period, <a href="/wiki/Krupp" title="Krupp">Krupp</a> purchased a one-third share of Bofors. Krupp engineers began the process of updating the Bofors factories with modern equipment and metallurgy, but the 40 mm project was kept secret. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/16/Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg/220px-Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/16/Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg/330px-Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/16/Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg/440px-Bofors_40mm_AAgun_manege_suomenlinna_1.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="900" /></a><figcaption>Finnish Bofors 40 mm.

Changes to the feed mechanism were all that remained and, by the end of the year, the gun was operating at 130 rounds per minute. The development needed to turn it into a weapon suitable for production was completed in October 1933. Because acceptance trials had been passed the year before, it became known as the "40 mm akan M/32".

With the development of the 40 mm well advanced, Bofors offered a 25 mm version in 1932, which was eventually selected as the <a href="/wiki/Bofors_25_mm_M/32" title="Bofors 25 mm M/32">Bofors 25 mm M/32</a>. </p><p>The first version of the 40 mm the Swedish Navy ordered was intended for use on submarines, because the larger calibre allowed the gun to be used both as an anti-aircraft gun, and against smaller ships. The barrel was shorter, at 43 calibres, which reduced the muzzle velocity to about 700 m/s (2,300 ft/s). When not in use, the gun was pointed directly up and retracted into a watertight cylinder. The only known submarines that used that arrangement were the <a href="/wiki/HSwMS_Sj%C3%B6lejonet_(1936)" title="HSwMS Sjölejonet (1936)"><i>Sjölejonet</i>-class</a> boats. The guns were later removed when the submarines were modified with streamlined conning towers. </p><p>The first order for the "real" L/60 was made by the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Netherlands_Navy" title="Royal Netherlands Navy">Dutch Navy</a>, which ordered five twin-gun mounts for the <a href="/wiki/Cruiser" title="Cruiser">cruiser</a> <a href="/wiki/HNLMS_De_Ruyter_(1935)" title="HNLMS De Ruyter (1935)"><i>De Ruyter</i></a> in August 1934. Those guns were stabilized using the <a href="/wiki/Hazemeyer_gun_mount" title="Hazemeyer gun mount"><i>Hazemeyer mount</i></a>, in which one set of layers aimed the gun, while a second manually stabilized the platform the gun sat on. All five mounts were operated by one fire-control system. </p><p>Bofors also developed a towable carriage, which was displayed at a show in Belgium in April 1935. That mount allowed the gun to be fired from the carriage with no set-up required, although it had limited accuracy. If time was available for set-up, the gunners used the tow-bar and muzzle lock as levers, raising the wheels off the ground and so lowering the gun onto supporting pads. Two additional legs folded out to the sides, and the platform was then levelled with hand cranks. The entire set-up process could be completed in under a minute. </p><p>Orders for the land-based versions were immediate, starting with one for eight weapons from Belgium in August 1935, followed by a flood of orders from other forces including Poland, Norway, and Finland.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEEncyclopédie_des_Armes19861749_24-0" class="reference"><a

governments negotiated for licensed production of the gun and its ammunition. These nations included Poland, Finland, Greece, Norway and many other countries. Thus by 1939 Bofors gun was in production all over Europe for many armies in bewildering arrangement of cross-deals. For instance, the United Kingdom took out a license, but was in such a hurry to re-arm with the Bofors gun that it also purchased quantities from Poland and Hungary. France wanted to set up a line but purchased guns from Poland. Poland meanwhile developed its own version of Bofors gun, contributing a lighter carriage (in the 40-mm armata przeciwlotnicza Bofors wz. 36) which was later adopted by the British. </p><p> The Swedish navy adopted the weapon as the m/36 in two versions: hand-worked single air-cooled, and power-operated twin water-cooled. A twin air-cooled mounting, probably hand-worked, was also used by the navies of Sweden and Argentina, and a twin air-cooled wet mounting was developed for Polish submarines.</p><div style="clear:left;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="British_versions">British versions</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bofors_40_mm_L/60_gun&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: British versions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Army_and_RAF_Regiment_versions">Army and RAF Regiment versions</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bofors_40_mm_L/60_gun&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Army and RAF Regiment versions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg/220px-QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="198" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg/330px-QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg/440px-QF_40mm_Mk1_CFB_Borden_1.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1991" data-file-height="1792" /></a><figcaption>Q.F. 40 mm Mk. 1 displayed at <a href="/wiki/CFB_Borden" title="CFB Borden">CFB Borden</a>.

They were known as the "QF 40 mm Mark I" (QF standing for <a href="/wiki/British_ordnance_terms#QF" class="mw-redirect" title="British ordnance terms">"quick firing"</a>). With a minor change to the <a href="/wiki/Flash_suppressor" title="Flash suppressor">flash hider</a>, they were designated "Mark I/2". A production licence was acquired, and the gun was converted from <a href="/wiki/Metric_system" title="Metric system">metric</a> to <a href="/wiki/Imperial_unit" class="mw-redirect" title="Imperial unit">imperial</a> measurements. Numerous changes were made to the design so that it was more suitable for mass production, because the original Bofors design was intended to be hand-assembled. Many parts were labelled "file to fit on assembly", requiring many man-hours of work to complete. </p><p>Testing showed that there was a serious problem with aiming the gun at high-speed aircraft. Although it could be trained quickly, aiming accurately while doing so proved difficult. In order to deal with that, the British introduced a complex <a href="/wiki/Analog_computer" title="Analog computer">mechanical analogue computer</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Kerrison_Predictor" title="Kerrison Predictor">Kerrison Director</a>, which drove the laying electrically. A three-man team operated the director by pointing it at the target whilst dialing in estimates for speed, range, and various atmospheric conditions. The director then aimed the gun using powered mounts, while a gunner loaded the clips. That eliminated the need for the lead-correcting reflector sights, which were replaced with a backup system consisting of a simple ring-and-post sight, known as a "pancake". </p><p>In that form, the "QF 40 mm Mark III" (Mk II was a designation used for <a href="/wiki/QF_2_pounder_naval_gun#QF_2-pounder_Mark_II" class="mw-redirect" title="QF 2 pounder naval gun">a version of the naval "pom-pom"</a> anti-aircraft gun), became the army's standard light anti-aircraft (AA) weapon, operating alongside their <a href="/wiki/QF_3-inch_20_cwt" title="QF 3-inch 20 cwt">3-inch 20 cwt</a> and <a href="/wiki/QF_3.7-inch_AA_gun" title="QF 3.7-inch AA gun">3.7-inch</a> heavy AA guns. British production started slowly and, by September 1939 only 233 equipments had been produced. However, by the end of the war, the total production of British, Canadian and Australian factories numbered over 19,000. The peak production year was 1942, when British factories produced 5,025 and Canadian factories produced 1,311.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In combat, it was found that the Kerrison was difficult to set up in many situations, as well as making <a href="/wiki/Logistics" title="Logistics">logistics</a> more complex, due to the need to keep its electrical generator supplied with fuel. In most engagements, only the pancake sights were used, without any form of correction, making the British versions less capable than those used by other forces. Eventually, an anti-aircraft gunnery school on the range at <a href="/wiki/Stiffkey" title="Stiffkey">Stiffkey</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Norfolk" title="Norfolk">Norfolk</a> coast, delivered a workable solution, a trapeze-like arrangement that moved the pancake sights to offer lead correction, operated by a new crew-member standing behind the left-hand layer. The "Stiffkey Sight" was sent out to units in 1943, arriving in Canadian units in the midst of the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_the_Aleutian_Islands" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of the Aleutian Islands">Battle of the Aleutian Islands</a>. A final wartime change to the elevation mechanism resulted in the "QF 40 mm Mark XII". A much lighter, two-wheeled carriage was also developed for <a href="/wiki/Airborne_forces" title="Airborne forces">airborne</a> use. </p><p>The army experimented with various <a href="/wiki/Self-propelled_anti-aircraft_weapon" title="Self-propelled anti-aircraft weapon">self-propelled anti-aircraft guns</a> based on various <a href="/wiki/Tank" title="Tank">tank</a> chassis. Changes to the breech for that role created the "QF 40 mm Mark VI", which was used on the <a href="/wiki/Crusader_tank" title="Crusader tank">Crusader tank</a> to produce the <a href="/wiki/Crusader_tank#Crusader_III,_AA_Mk_I" title="Crusader tank">Crusader III AA Mark I</a>. The main self-propelled version of the Bofors was the gun mounted on a chassis derived from the <a href="/wiki/Morris_C8" title="Morris C8">Morris C8</a> "Quad" artillery tractor, which was known as the "Carrier, 30 cwt, SP, 4×4, 40 mm AA (Bofors)" or Morris-Commercial C9/B. Such guns were used in support of army divisions, to provide swift protection against air attack without the need to unlimber. They saw service in north-west Europe, where six SP Bofors of 92nd (Loyals) Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment, Royal Artillery, landed with the <a href="/wiki/British_3rd_Infantry_Division" class="mw-redirect" title="British 3rd Infantry Division">British 3rd Infantry Division</a> on <a href="/wiki/Sword_Beach" title="Sword Beach">Sword Beach</a> on D-Day, to protect the vital bridges over the <a href="/wiki/Canal_de_Caen_%C3%A0_la_Mer" title="Canal de Caen à la Mer">Caen Canal</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Orne_River" class="mw-redirect" title="Orne River">Orne River</a> (<a href="/wiki/Pegasus_Bridge" title="Pegasus Bridge">Pegasus Bridge</a> and <a href="/wiki/Horsa_Bridge" title="Horsa Bridge">Horsa Bridge</a>), shooting down 17 German planes. Later in the campaign, SP Bofors were used extensively for ground shoots as well as in an anti-aircraft role. </p><p>In British Army service, the Bofors found a highly specialised role: during the <a href="/wiki/North_Africa_campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="North Africa campaign">North Africa campaign</a>, at the <a href="/wiki/Second_Battle_of_El_Alamein" title="Second Battle of El Alamein">Second Battle of El Alamein</a>, they were used to fire <a href="/wiki/Tracer_ammunition" title="Tracer ammunition">tracer</a> horizontally to mark safe paths for units through the German minefields. That practice was further developed during operations in north-west Europe, where bursts of colour-coded tracer were used to define the axis of advance of different formations in large-scale night attacks. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/RAF_Regiment" title="RAF Regiment">RAF Regiment</a> was formed in February 1942, in response to the German capture of airfields with airborne troops in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Crete" title="Battle of Crete">Battle of Crete</a>, which resulted in strategic defeat on the island by numerically inferior German forces. The formation of a dedicated airfield defence force included low-level air defence, in which the Bofors L60 — the same design as the Army version — was the principal weapon for the RAF Regiment's Light Anti-Aircraft squadrons in North Africa, Malta, Italy, the Balkans, the UK (including the allocation of fifty-two squadrons to <a href="/wiki/Operation_Diver" title="Operation Diver">Operation Diver</a> defence against V-1 flying bombs in southern England), and north-western Europe (from <a href="/wiki/Normandy_landings" title="Normandy landings">Normandy landings</a> through to the cessation of hostilities). </p><p>No 2875 Squadron RAF Regiment, employing the L60, became the first unit to shoot down a jet aircraft, a <a href="/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_262" title="Messerschmitt Me 262">Messerschmitt Me 262</a>, with ground-based anti-aircraft fire, at <a href="/wiki/Helmond" title="Helmond">Helmond</a> in the Netherlands on 28 November 1944. Although the Allied air forces had achieved air superiority by the Normandy landings, <a href="/wiki/Advanced_Landing_Ground" class="mw-redirect" title="Advanced Landing Ground">Advanced Landing Grounds</a> continued to be high-priority targets for the Luftwaffe when the opportunity presented, and that ensured that the RAF Regiment's L60s continued to be heavily used. For example, on New Year's Day 1945, during the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_the_Bulge" title="Battle of the Bulge">Battle of the Bulge</a>, RAF Regiment Light Anti-Aircraft squadrons shot down 43 German aircraft and damaged 28 others during the <a href="/wiki/Operation_Bodenplatte" title="Operation Bodenplatte">Operation Bodenplatte</a> attacks on eleven RAF forward airfields. There were insufficient guns available to equip the RAF Regiment squadrons in the Far East during the war, and they had to make do mostly with <a href="/wiki/Hispano-Suiza_HS.404" title="Hispano-Suiza HS.404">20 mm Hispano</a> and <a href="/wiki/Oerlikon_20_mm_cannon" title="Oerlikon 20 mm cannon">Oerlikon 20 mm</a> guns.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

After the <a href="/wiki/German_invasion_of_the_Netherlands" title="German invasion of the Netherlands">German invasion of the Netherlands</a> in May 1940, the Dutch minelayer, <a href="/wiki/HNLMS_Willem_van_der_Zaan_(ML-2)" title="HNLMS Willem van der Zaan (ML-2)">HNLMS <i>Willem van der Zaan</i></a>, gave the navy its first example of a water-cooled gun on its Hazemeyer tri-axially stabilized mounting. Locally produced examples started arriving in 1942, known as the "QF 40 mm Mark IV" with twin-mounts, or the "QF 40 mm Mark V" with single mounts. The navy ran through a variety of versions of the basic Bofors gun over the war, including the Mark VII to Mark XI. The British light anti-aircraft weapon already in use with the Royal Navy's, the <a href="/wiki/QF_2_pounder_naval_gun" class="mw-redirect" title="QF 2 pounder naval gun">QF 2-pounder gun</a>, also had a calibre of 40 mm, but was referred to as the QF 2-pdr. </p><p>In the Royal Navy guns and mounts were designated separately. The following mountings were used: </p> <ul><li>Mark I: twin mounting based on American design and using American-built guns, not widely fitted. Fitted for remote <a href="/wiki/Fire-control_system" title="Fire-control system">fire control</a>.</li> <li>Mark II: quadruple version similar to the Mark I</li> <li>Mark III: a navalized version of the Army single mounting, hand worked elevation and training.</li> <li>Mark IV: a tri-axially stabilized twin mounting, copied from, and usually known as, the "Hazemeyer". It had on-mounting fire control, and was usually fitted with Radar Type 282 to provide target range information.</li> <li>Mark V: twin mounting, which superseded, and eventually replaced, the Mark IV, often referred to as the "utility" mounting. It was a simplified, unstabilised mounting based on the American twin mounting Mark I, and was designed for remote fire control.</li> <li>Mark VI: a six-barreled weapon, feeding from large trays instead of clips, and designed for remote control from a dedicated radar-equipped director.</li> <li>Mark VII: a single-barreled, hydraulically-powered mounting, that superseded the Mark III and entered service in 1945.</li> <li>Mark IX: Mark VII mount modified for electrical power, as the Mounting Mark IX and, in that form, saw service in the <a href="/wiki/Falklands_War" title="Falklands War">Falklands War</a>.</li></ul> <p>The Mounting Mark V (Mark VC for Canadian built examples) for the 20 mm Oerlikon and QF 2 pounder guns was also adopted initially as an interim mount for the Bofors. It was a single-barrelled mounting with hydraulic power, and was known as the "Boffin". </p><p>The final British Bofors mounting to see service was the "Stabilized Tachymetric Anti-Aircraft Gun" (STAAG), which was twin-barrelled, stabilised, and carried its own <a href="/wiki/Tachymetric_anti-aircraft_fire_control_system" title="Tachymetric anti-aircraft fire control system">tachymetric</a> (i.e. predictive) fire control system, based around the centimetre Radar Type 262, capable of "locking on" to a target. The mounting was heavy (17.5 tons) and the high-vibration of the gun mounting made it a poor location for sensitive valve electronics and mechanical computers. The STAAG Mark I carried the radar dish over the gun barrels, where it was subject to damage during firing so, on the STAAG Mark II, the set was shifted to the roof of the control cabin. STAAG was ultimately too difficult to maintain in the harsh environment of a warship and was replaced by the Mounting Mark V, with the fire control equipment located remotely, then by the single Mark VII and, ultimately, with the <a href="/wiki/Seacat_(missile)" title="Seacat (missile)">GWS20 Seacat missile system</a>. The final version of STAAG was fitted to the RN <a href="/wiki/Whitby_class_frigate" class="mw-redirect" title="Whitby class frigate">Type 12 <i>Whitby</i>-class</a> anti-submarine frigates and the <a href="/wiki/Leopard-class_frigate" title="Leopard-class frigate">Type 41 <i>Leopard</i></a> anti-aircraft and <a href="/wiki/Salisbury-class_frigate" title="Salisbury-class frigate">Type 61 <i>Salisbury</i></a> air direction frigates, completed from 1956 to 1958.

Fourthly, the Swedish guns were air-cooled, limiting their ability to fire long bursts, a necessity for most naval AA engagements. Finally, the USN rejected the Swedish ammunition design, as it was not boresafe, the fuze was found to be too sensitive for normal shipboard use and its overall design was determined to be unsuitable for mass production.<sup id="cite_ref-NAVWEAP_5-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NAVWEAP-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-BuOrd1_30-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BuOrd1-30"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Naval">Naval</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bofors_40_mm_L/60_gun&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Naval"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/77/Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg/220px-Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="176" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/77/Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg/330px-Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/77/Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg/440px-Bofors_firing_USS_Hornet.jpg 2x" data-file-width="740" data-file-height="591" /></a><figcaption>A MK 12 quadruple mount of Bofors guns fires from <a href="/wiki/USS_Hornet_(CV-12)" title="USS Hornet (CV-12)">USS <i>Hornet</i></a></figcaption></figure> <p>The <a href="/wiki/United_States_Navy" title="United States Navy">United States Navy</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Bureau_of_Ordnance" title="Bureau of Ordnance">Bureau of Ordnance</a> purchased a twin-mount air-cooled example, spare parts and 3,000 rounds of ammunition directly from Bofors, which arrived in New York on 28 August 1940 aboard the Army transport <a href="/wiki/SS_American_Legion" title="SS American Legion">USAT <i>American Legion</i></a>, which had evacuated 897 people, including members of the Norwegian royal family, through the Finnish port of <a href="/wiki/Pechengsky_District" title="Pechengsky District">Petsamo</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-31" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-31"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>30<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> During that month another Dutch ship, the <a href="/wiki/HNLMS_Van_Kinsbergen_(1939)" title="HNLMS Van Kinsbergen (1939)"><i>Van Kinsbergen</i></a>, demonstrated the Hazemeyer mount to Navy observers.
