[edit] Description
Autocannon is a combination of a large caliber cannon and a generic infantry automatic weapon resulting in a rapid firing weapon capable of delivering high damage at a constant rate. Autocannons have lower damage than a typical tank cannon and a lower rate of fire than an automatic weapon, but they are generally effective with wider range of targets.
[edit] Specifics
Autocannons come in form many, from the low firing rate Anti Vehicle 20mm Machinegun, devastating 20mm AAA autocannons, to the overpowering APC autocannon. It is best to know about specifications of each one.
[edit] APC 30mm Autocannon
Mounted on APC, this autocannon is similar to many real life autocannons mounted on IFVs. It deals even higher damage than KPA tank cannon, while at cost of being capable of firing up to only 2 shots per second, however this is more than enough in destroying SPAAA from the rear, LTV, truck, helicopter, and even tanks with a large number of shells spent.
[edit] Anti Vehicle 20mm Machinegun
This weapon only appears in Crysis Warhead, it has a rather low rate of fire but can deal high damage, sufficient to kill a generic KPA infantry in a single hit. It is best used against vehicles, from LTV to ASV, this weapon is capable of causing a massive amount of damage to both vehicles. This weapon is also an effective anti-personnel weapon as it has very high accuracy.
[edit] VTOL 20mm Machinegun
Only found in Ascension, and through changing modification of a VTOL. This weapon is a very devastating autocannon, due to a machinegun-level rate of fire capable of destroying nearly every target in a few hits, as it does with Alien Scouts in Ascension. It is however overheated rather quickly.
