While I was studying the Russian Navy's naval guns, I found a very interesting similarity between the a129 and the ak130. These Russian documents clearly show a completely different ammunition depot and supply route from the NATO system. But it's very confusing how they designed the swing arm, how they accomplished the last step, and how high it is.

I served on the destroyer Project 956 with such a gun. The gun weighs 90 tons, the mechanism is very complex, sometimes it stopped firing after the fifth shot. A supply of 1,000 shells per turret.
Unfortunately, I haven't been to the tower itself, so I'm not familiar with the loading mechanism.

Probably may cause by the problem for the ammunition supply system?just a guess, after carefully read the model, as if the bottom have a (комплекс механизированной подпитки (КМП)) may be a magazine, there is a (магазин), may be playing the drum in the middle. Translation software was used in Russian because the parts were called differently from English, and the navel gun system is quite different from BAE's mk45 and otto's 127. The ammunition supply system of the ak130 and a192 systems are quite long
