General info
Further development of the Hispano cannon by the British.
Available shells
Describe the shells that are available for the cannon and their features and purpose. If it concerns autocannons or machine guns, write about different ammo belts and what is inside (which types of shells).
Comparison with analogues
- Hispano Mk.I (20 mm)
- Hispano Mk.II (20 mm)
- Hispano HS.9 (20 mm)
- Hispano 404 (20 mm)
- MG 151/20 (20 mm)
- FlaK 38 (20 mm)
Usage in battles
Slightly lower velocity than its brethren Hispano cannons it may throw off aim somewhat for the pilot in charge. It has a good high explosive filler and a fast rate of fire allowing for strafing of land and water-based targets.
Pros and cons
- Pros
- High rate of fire
- Large explosive filler
- Cons
- Lower muzzle velocity than its predecessor Hispano cannons which may throw you off in aiming
History
Developed by the British from the Hispano cannon series, it featured a higher rate of fire whilst being lighter and shorter. However, it had a lower muzzle velocity and required manual charging of ammunition in preparation to firing.
Media
An excellent addition to the article would be a video guide, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
