The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia – Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL) has conducted the first test firing of a shore-based 76 mm gun that has been installed at a newly built naval weapons range in Paiton, East Java.

The firing, which involved the discharge of five live rounds in quick succession, was conducted on 21 November against an inflatable radar reflective balloon located about 3.5 km out in the Madura Strait, military and industrial sources confirmed with Jane’s on the same day.
