General info
Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.

Comparison with analogues
Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns, that have firepower equal to these type of weapons.
Usage in battles
Describe the cannon/machine gun in the game - its distinctive features, tactics of usage against the main opponents. Please don't write a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought.

Summarize and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.
Pros:
- VERY nice sound effect
Cons:

Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article.
