solid C-tier AA gun

absolutely average at everything, there isnt much to say about it

/tg/ reporting

How was the flak 36/37? Don't hear much about it

oh baby

because fuck your mbt and fuck your bomber

at least on a paper comparison, it comes out surprisingly well against the more famous 40mm bofors
it fires a lighter projectile at a lower velocity, but it fires faster and weights less

though that bit about less energy in its shell would hinder its post-war development
against jets, range was king, so there just wanst any point in using the 37mm over the 40mm, and the 40mm was more widely available since everyone liscense built it during the war

If only it didn't have that half assed mount.

Why didn't coax 30mm autocannons catch on?

I'm guessing ammo restraints

>>64262507
What isn't worth a 120 but doesn't get fucked by a .50, not much.
Definitely nothing common enough to warrant the weight space and complexity over the browning that will outlast the designer's bloodline and can be loaded by the limp wristed anime brained tank coomander
>Gun is fine

>>64261746
Possibly a dumb question: how did 2-gunner AA guns work? One guy adjusted for lead, the other for elevation? That seems incredibly awkward if so.

Jesus Christ. It's like an entire artillery battery in one gun.

>>64262926
Yep.

>>64262934
No, the self-propelled artillery piece was in 15,5. That one they actually fielded.

>>64262926
VT fuses did make life an awful lot easier.

what happens if you give cigarette company a task to make autocannon

>>64261732 (OP)
Hell yeah
>>64262507
The coax bit is dumb. In a CROWS, especially radar linked it makes sense.
>>64262850
Most coax is 7.62 though.

Some interesting ideas to solve the drone menace, I reckon.

>>64261787
the flak 43 was vastly superior
the twin barrel could fire at 500rpm

>Most coax is 7.62 though.
Unless I'm wrong that's modern coax which isn't coax so much as ranging ammo that you're not supposed to use
I assumed anon was refering to those specifically used as a gun for softer targets

>>64262926
Yes, but it was probably less awkward than you imagine. Focusing on only one aspect of the aiming sequence was just faster than having someone operate both st the same time

>>64262926
They usually spent month or two in training on the specific cannon they will be using
