Comparison with analogues

  • M242 Bushmaster (25mm): An American auto-cannon with a similar fire rate and can fire M919 APFSDS.
  • 2A42 (30mm): A Russian auto cannon of the same caliber that has a higher fire rate.
  • Oerlikon KDE (35mm): An auto cannon found on the Type-89 IFV with similar penetration performance.

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

Pros:

  • Good auto cannon for universal use.
  • Has access to APFSDS rounds.
  • Has HE-TF, decent enough to deal with air targets.
  • Plenty of ammo.
  • Good muzzle velocity.
  • Overheats slowly

Cons:

  • Slow fire rate compared to its counterparts.
  • HE-TF can be hard to use against faster air targets.
  • Stock belt is subpar for destroying ground units.

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: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.

See also

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:

  • reference to the article about the variant of the cannon/machine gun;
  • references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.

External links

Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:

  • topic on the official game forum;
  • other literature.
