Derrière le bec de la machine, on trouve un barillet rotatif percé de chambres et analogue au barillet d'un revolver. Chaque machine est dotée d'un outil, le ringard qui permet de retirer la plaque d'obturation et le bouchon d'extrémité avant l'avitaillement du réacteur. Pendant cette opération, le barillet conserve la plaque et le bouchon. 1, record 1, French, - barillet%20rotatif
