M1919A4 Browning machine gun

车辆背景与资料

M1919 Browning是一款.30口径的中型机枪,在20世纪被广泛使用,尤其是在第二次世界大战、朝鲜战争和越南战争期间。M1919被美国及许多其他国家用作轻型步兵机枪、并列机枪、车载机枪、航空机枪和防空机枪。

M1919是第一次世界大战期间美军标准机枪——由John M. Browning设计的水冷式M1917——的气冷式改进型。20世纪50年代通用机枪的出现,尤其是在M60进入美国陆军服役后,使得M1919在许多情况下退居次要角色。

美国海军还将许多M1919改装为7.62 mm NATO口径,并将其命名为Mk 21 Mod 0;在20世纪60年代和70年代的越南,它们常被用于内河舰艇上。许多北约国家也将其装备改装为7.62 mm口径,这些机枪一直服役到20世纪90年代,甚至在一些国家至今仍在使用。
