Description
The 20 mm akan m/47C is the Swedish designation for the British 20 mm Hispano Mk.V. Sweden bought surplus weapons and a license to produce the weapon after WW2. The Swedish configuration of the weapon offers more or less the same performance as the British Hispano Mk V guns but has different belts and a slightly lower fire rate.

General info
The 20 mm akan m/47C deals good damage but has a lower fire rate compared to a lot of other guns at the common BR of its carriers. Its carriers however carry a lot of ammo for each gun, which together with its medium-high fire rate, allows you to fire for a longer period of time without running out of ammo.

- Ground targets: AP-T · AP-T · AP-T · HEF-T
