The 127 mm Bofors MoKan Mk. 76 is a set of Dnieguan rapidfire naval artillery guns. Purposed for the engagement of surface target and slow moving air targets, the 127mm guns sit in either a twin or single mounted turret system. One of the most prolific automatic naval cannons in the world, the 127mm guns have been used successfully to engage a myriad of targets.
