That's about correct as I can remember. I served on the Swedish motortorped boats 70- 71 and we used to bang away a lot on that gun the 40 mm lvakan m/36 since there was a lot of ammo in store since the war. Was like sitting in some machine that banged away at a slow pace and the projectile would only explode on impact and self-destruct at a far distance. You could see the detonations but no sound.
