Davis gun
The Davis gun was the first true recoilless gun developed and taken into service. It was developed by Commander Cleland Davis〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/aircraft/29821-davis-recoilless-gun.html )〕 of the US Navy, in 1910, just prior to World War I. ==Back to Back==
His design connected two guns back to back, with the backwards-facing gun loaded with lead balls and grease of the same weight as the shell in the other gun, acting as a counter. His idea was used experimentally by the British and America as an anti-Zeppelin and anti-submarine weapon〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.big-ordnance.com/Davis/davis_ammunition.htm )〕 mounted on the British Handley Page O/100 bomber and the American Curtiss HS-2L and H-16 (flying boats)〔 respectively. The direct development of the gun ended with World War I, but the firing principle has been copied by later designs.
