 Developed by the British from the Hispano cannon series, it featured a higher rate of fire whilst being lighter and shorter. However, it had a lower muzzle velocity and required manual charging of ammunition in preparation to firing.
-The Hispano Mk V was the ultimate British license-built variant of the French [[Hispano 404 (20 mm)|Hispano 404]] autocannon. The Mk V featured a shorter barrel so the cannon would be housed in the wing reducing drag and offering better protection for the cannon. One of the main fighters to use the Mk V was the Hawker [[Tempest Mk V]], but also saw use during World War II on the Hawker Fury and [[Sea Fury FB 11|Sea Fury]] fighters, late-war marks of the Spitfire, the prototype Martin-Baker M.B.5 fighter, and the Westland Welkin high altitude heavy fighter. In the post-war period, The Hispanio Mk.V saw service on even more aircraft including the Westland [[Wyvern S4]] navy strike fighter, the Avro [[Shackleton MR.Mk.2]] maritime patrol craft, Bristol [[Brigand B 1]] ground attack craft, Avro [[Lincoln B Mk II]], the Supermarine Spiteful and its naval counterpart, the Seafang, the de Havilland [[Hornet Mk.I|Hornet]] twin-engine fighter, the de Havilland [[Vampire (Family)|Vampire]] and [[Venom FB.4|Venom]] fighter jets, English Electric [[Canberra (Family)|Canberra]] jet bomber, [[Sea Hawk FGA.6|Sea Hawk]] naval fighter jet, Saunders-Roe SR.A/1 flying boat jet, Supermarine [[Attacker FB 1|Attacker]] naval jet, and the on South African Air Force variants of the Aérospatiale Alouette III helicopters.
