General info
Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.
Available shells
FI-T, API. Velocity of API shell is 610 m/s. Is possible to achieve penetration on roof of American MBT's (Abrams, MBT-70) although can prove to be difficult.
FI-T Shell is a stealth round however will always be matched with at least one API-Tracer shell every 4 shots. (Air Targets Belt) The velocity is unknown for certain in War Thunder although official records Suggest it to be 690 m/s. If a hit to the inner wing or central fuselage is scored it will act like a "mini flak shell" and can cause fuel leaks, oil leaks, slight engine damage (Jets), and inner wing damage.
Comparison with analogues
Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns, that have firepower equal to these type of weapons.
Usage in battles
Describe the cannon/machine gun in the game - its distinctive features, tactics of usage against the main 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
Summarize and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.
Pros: Higher fire rate than predecessor (NS-23 found on Mig-15 standard), Decent damage per shell, High fire rate for gun of caliber.
Cons: Low velocity, One shell usually wont Crit or Kill an enemy, *possibly* different velocity than gun usually paired with (N-37D), occasional sparks.
History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of this weapon. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: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>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article.
Media
An excellent addition to the article would be a video guide, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
See also
