Usage in battles
The automatkanon is a great cannon for its battle rating. It does well when facing medium and light tanks, usually destroying your opponent in one or two shots. The cannon can penetrate almost any tank at its BR from the side or rear. Due to the cannons large profile, bushes can be used on the cannon giving you additional stealth if you are willing to spend extra golden eagles. The cannon should not be used for sniping past 500 to 700 meters because of below average accuracy and bullet velocity.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Decent penetration
- Very fast reload speed
- Good post penetration damage
Cons:
- Low bullet velocity
History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
