for those familiar with the museum, it's in the hangar housing F-104 and Huey (among others) in the "cold war" section

 

 

I think it's Soviet aircraft cannon, there's broad display of various NS- NR- GSH- types in the other hangar, can't ID this one

 

 

oh, it's over the size of me when compared, so it's long (187cm guy here)

 

edit:

sorry for crappy pics, not my camera

Hi Stary !

 

I think that's a Nudelman N-37, an 37mm automatic cannon used in MiG-15 and 17. :grin:

 

Bye !

dunno, chamber looks different but 37 might be the calibre as it's quite a gun, might be some variant or such

 

TY
