The gun can fire ammunition with high muzzle velocity, and is made of chrome-plated "special steel".
[2][3][4][5] MKE modified the design per Altay requirements and produce the gun under license.
[5] The design of the tank gun is the same as CN08, but there are two differences: unlike CN08, thermal sleeve is equipped with static muzzle reference system (SMRS), and Altay's turret does not have breech opening motor and automatic feeding magazine system for autoloader mechanism, so ammunition can only be loaded manually by tank crew and can fire up to 6 rounds a minute.
The gun can fire various types of tank ammunitions including MKE made APFSDS-T, TPCSDS-T Training and High Pressure.
[6] The gun is also able to fire Roketsan made TANOK gun-launched 120 mm laser guided anti-tank missile with range of 1-6 km.
