Royal Ordnance L7 is a British 105mm tank gun from the Cold War and modern times. Design work on this gun began in the early 1950s, field tests began in 1959, and the British Army entered service shortly thereafter. The Royal Ordnance L7 gun was developed to replace the 84mm 20lb gun in the line. It turned out to be one of the best tank guns in the world in the 1960s and 1970s, and in the next decade it was at the forefront of the world! It became the main armament of such tanks as the late versions of the Centurion, M48 Patton, Leopard 1 tanks, but also the Merkava Mark I and II. It was also produced under license in the USA, where it was used in the M1 Abrams tank of the first mass-produced version. The L7 cannon fired a wide range of anti-tank missiles, including the APDS (Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot) missile, i.e. a sub-caliber projectile with a throwing sabotage. Projectiles of this type left the barrel with an initial speed of 1470 m / s. Armor-piercing, fin stabilized, discarding sabot (APFSDS) missiles were also used, i.e. a sabot stabilized subcaliber round with a throwing sabotage. Its initial speed was up to 1,475 m / s. In general, it is assumed that the L7 cannon, firing APDS or APFSDS missiles, was able to fight T-54, T-55 and T-62 tanks at distances of 1000-1500 meters without any major problems.
