Historical Significance:
The 40mm L60 Bofors gun was a cornerstone of Allied anti-aircraft defenses during World War II.

Renowned for its high rate of fire, reliability, and effectiveness against enemy aircraft, the 40mm L60 played a crucial role in the defense of ships and military installations from aerial attacks.
