Auto-Cannon

A linkless feed, fully automatic weapon, the Auto-cannon fires a 100 gram round at velocities of 1200 meters per second with a practical rate of fire of 200 rounds per minute. Ammunition is provided in 200 round drums, two of which may be attached to the weapon at any one time. Two different ammunition types may be used, one in each drum, and drum selection may be changed at will. Replacing an empty ammunition drum requires one minute. If a loader is present, this may be done while the weapon is being fired from the other drum. Ammunition provided includes HE, and 20/9mm discarding sabot. Every tenth round in an HE drum is an incendiary round.
