What are Those Bulges on Tank Gun Barrels? What are they for?
Tanks are manufactured to carry offensive weaponry on a highly mobile platform while keeping the crews safe from the elements, the environment, and, most importantly, the rivals. A tank consists of several sophisticated systems and components to perform these tasks. The functions of which are difficult to explain merely by looking at them. One of the most paramount features of a tank is a bore evacuator, also known as a fume extractor. It is a device found on the barrel of most modern tanks. It’s location on the barrel may vary but they all follow the same principles. This device has a function to remove lingering gases and airborne residues from the barrel of an armoured fighting vehicle's gun after firing, particularly in tanks and self-propelled guns.
