services as well as customer support for aircraft in
service. South Africa will also acquire eight A400Ms from
2010, bolstering its strategic airlift capabilities and enabling
it to support national, regional and multi-national peace and
humanitarian missions.
The A400M order book currently stands at 192 firm commitments,
including the seven European NATO launch customer
nations, South Africa and Malaysia. The aircraft will first fly
in 2008 with deliveries beginning in 2009. The new airlifter
will enable air forces around the world to upgrade their airlift
capability for both humanitarian and peace-keeping activities.
NTW-20 Anti-materiél Rifle Upgrade
SAPS HELI
UPGRADES
& MORE
Originally designed for
20x82mm ammunition
(with a quick-change function
to fire 14.5x114mm
rounds), the NTW-20 in
the 20x110HS configuration
now affords clients a
significantly wider benefit.
The 20x110 HS round possesses
excellent characteristics
in terms of muzzle velocity
and explosive payload.
This ensures an improvement
in the maximum operational
range (up to 1500m) and terminal
effect. This round is
also available from numerous
sources internationally in
new generation configurations.
Changes to the weapon include
upgrades to the recoil
and feed system, trigger box
and an accurately calibrated
bullet-drop compensator
(BDC) suitable to this round.
The 20x110mm ammunition
range comprises HEI (high-explosive
incendiary), HEIT
(high-explosive incendiary
tracer), SAPHEI (semi-armour
piercing, high-explosive
incendiary), and AP (armour
piercing) rounds with a muzzle
velocity of 820 m/sec, as
well as PRAC (practice) and
PRACT (practice tracer)
rounds. The NTW-20 AMR,
weighing 31.5 kg unloaded,
is a two-man weapon which
is normally fired in the prone
position, ensuring maximum
stability for long-range shooting.
It has an 8 x 56 power
telescope with parallax adjustment,
fitted to a quickrelease
mounting with integral
bullet-drop compensation.
The sight is mounted to
give 250mm eye relief, thus
providing the optimum combination
of situational awareness,
target acquisition and
accurate aiming.
The weapon is bolt action,
with a three round magazine
or by manual feeding through
the ejection port. It can be
completely field stripped
with no tools other than a
round of ammunition, which
is used as a tool for removing
the barrel.
The NTW-20 can be mounted
on Denel’s new purpose-built,
buffered and damped vehicle
mount. This mount has been
designed and manufactured
to suit the needs of longrange
accurate single shot
fire from weapons such as
the NTW-20 AMR.
Dampers in the mount control
the free movement of the
weapon during aim. These
can be quickly regulated to
allow rapid slewing of the
weapon.
The combination of the NTW-
20 AMR and the vehicle
mount provides the user with
a highly versatile and powerful
payload rifle which, due
to its mobility, can be deployed
in any number of scenarios.
Denel Land Systems’ successful NTW-20
Anti Materiél Rifle has received a
reconfiguration to handle most
variants of 20x110 HS ammunition.

The Airbus Military A400M is a 21st century
heavylifter designed to replace the C-130
Hercules, C-160 Transall and former Soviet-era
Antonov and Illyushin transports. Seven European
nations collaborated to design and build
the aircraft, with South Africa coming on-board
as the first non-European nation. The first aircraft
is scheduled to fly in 2008.
This spectacular photograph records a bitter sweet moment.

(significant wind and wave action) and at an intercept

The two Denel teams worked very hard to prepare the
missile and target drone for the test. Although the Skua
