Ammunition240 rounds

Fire rate996 shots/min

The Sagittario 2 is armed with:

• 2 x 30 mm Hispano HS 825 cannons, nose-mounted (120 rpg = 240 total)

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

• Extremely agile, able to outturn most aircraft
• Relatively high top speed for its BR
• 2 x hard hitting 30 mm cannons are excellent at taking down other aircraft
• The HS 825 cannons have a very high muzzle velocity

Cons:

• Limited ammunition capacity, the 120 rpg pool will suffice for just over 5 seconds of fire
• No payload options

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
