Comparison with analogues
- M230E-1 (30 mm): 30 mm American chain cannon found on the Apache, with access to HEDP rounds and higher ammo count, but a lower rate of fire.
- GSh-6-30 (30 mm): A rotary cannon of the same calibre with 6 barrels and a higher rate of fire than the GSh-30-2.
- 2A42 (30 mm): A Soviet 30 mm cannon with a much slower rate of fire rate but has access to APDS rounds and more ammo.
Usage in battles
Describe the cannon/machine gun in the game - its distinctive features, tactics of usage against notable opponents. Please don't write a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought.
Pros and cons
Summarise and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.
Pros:
- Good belt options for both air and ground units
- Access to APHE rounds, can destroy light and medium targets with a single burst
- Variable rate of fire option, can conserve ammo on "low" setting
- Good muzzle velocity
Cons:
- High rate of fire means careless usage will result in running out of ammo quickly
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
