barquilla lateral, barcaza Explanation: Hola los "left or right hand sponsons" son los "lateral sponsons", de ahí que se les denomine "barquilla lateral". El "main sponson" sería la "barcaza" Copié algunos párrafos de la Web: The Australian Army has/had over 700 M113's and it's associated variants from introduction into service. The planned upgrade will be a new single gun turret (.50 cal), an improved crew protection system consisting of spall liners in the sponsons (stowage areas), a water cooling system, upgraded driveline components. http://www.diggerz.org/viewtopic.php?topic=44&forum=16 * Ground Attack Vehicle: (GAV). An artillery piece with heavy frontal armour / Shield and some secondary armament. Usually in the form of an egg or rugby ball. The weapon emerges from the front of the hull. An alternative may carry rapid fire and/or multiple weapons in lateral pods or sponsons. The back of the vehicle may carry aerodynamic/radiator fins. It vulnerable from the side and rear. http://hjem.get2net.dk/Zacharov/Auxilia.html Weapons: The UD-4 Cheyenne is armed with a nose-mounted assault cannon with a 90 degree field of fire to the front. 16 frag missiles are carried in each primary sponson and 6 melta missiles are carried in each secondary sponson, each with a 90 degree field of fire to the front. http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/leew/codex_uscm/vehicle.h... Tripulación: 10 (Conductor, Comandante, Artillero de Torreta, Artillero de Barcaza, 3 Artilleros de Bolters Pesados, 2 Artilleros de Barquillas Laterales y 1 Oficial de Comunicaciones) Armamento: Cañón de Batalla montado en la torreta, Cañón de Batalla montado en la barcaza, 3 pares de Bolters Pesados gemelos, 2 Barquillas Laterales con Cañones Láser Variantes: Armadura reforzada, Cañón de Batalla montado en la barcaza reemplazado por un Cañón Demolisher o un Estremecedor http://dreamers.com/noega/Guardia.htm The Australian Army has/had over 700 M113's and it's associated variants from introduction into service. The planned upgrade will be a new single gun turret (.50 cal), an improved crew protection system consisting of spall liners in the sponsons (stowage areas) http://www.diggerz.org/viewtopic.php?topic=44&forum=16 Reference: http://www.diggerz.org/viewtopic.php?topic=44&forum=16 |

Sorry!, misread your question. Let´s try again!! Explanation: Anyways!!, I found this info. that you need to check out. It gives you drawings of sponsons. Apparently they are small windows that are opened to insert weapons for defense purposes and safety of personnel during transport. port-hole-Ventanilla, porta, portañola, tronera. Mk IV sponsons. Like the previous Heavy Tanks the Mk IV came in a male and a female version. The sponsons were redesigned, they were much smaller in size and could be swung inwards. This avoided the time consuming bolting on and off of the sponsons for railtransport. The 6pounder gun of the male version had a shorter barrel compared with the earlier Mark's. http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/HvOerle/mk4-con.htm See if this helps. Bye |
