	Flying Guns The Modern Era - Amendments
		The Makarov TKB 539 was a 30mm 4-chamber revolver cannon, with an unusual action in which the cylinder was allowed to recoil via the gas system action in order to unlock from the barrel, rotate 90 degrees and then relock.
		The initiator of the transition to 30-mm cannon was the Vice-Minister of Defence of Army Armament, general V.Ya.
		Development of this cannon was started on 15 June 1963 by a resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, which described the task to a construct Gatling-type multibarrel cannon with a high rate of fire for naval artillery installation, the AK-630.

	Intro
		Revolvers that only work in SA mode, termed SA-only, always require manual cocking in the form of pulling back the hammer with a thumb or the other hand, and are therefore totally impractical for combat or self-defense.
		Revolvers do not have external manual safeties, so they should only be put into SA mode when preparing to fire.
		2.2.1.5 Reloading The revolver is not an auto-loader.

	Cannon
		The smoothbore cannon, first appearing in the early 14th century in Europe, assumed its classic form at the beginning of the 17th century, which persisted unchanged to the mid-19th century, when it was superseded by the breechloading rifled gun.
		Bombardum was used for cannon and cannonball as early as 1430, and bombator is known from 1456 for a gunner, or or bombardiator from 1547.
		The cannon was originally lashed to a log or pole, or to a flat table, and supported in a rest near the muzzle.

	Howstuffworks "How Revolvers Work"
		To load the cannon, you pour in gunpowder (a mixture of charcoal, sulfur and potassium nitrate), and then drop in a cannonball.
		In early revolvers, a shooter had to pull the hammer back before each shot and then pull the trigger to release the hammer.
		Obviously, a revolver is easier to use than a flintlock or a percussion-cap weapon.

	Daily Local News - Cannon convicted for weapons
		Cannon, who had served seven years in prison starting in 1997 for convictions related to activities as a member of Coatesville's Young Guns drug gang, was found guilty of one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm and one count of being a felon in possession of body armor.
		Among what Cannon had to prove, he said, was that he did nothing to provoke the problems with any rivals.
		Because of restrictions on what was admissible concerning Cannon's criminal history and because Cannon opted not to testify on his own behalf the jury learned little about the circumstances surrounding the May 22 shooting.

	[1.0] Hunter Development & Variants
		Even with this fix cannon firing was restricted to low altitude and speed, which was not exactly sensible for an aircraft designed for the air combat role.
		The mounting for the cannon pack was reinforced as early variants of the Hunter demonstrated some stress and cracking from the cannon recoil, and an air scoop was added in the nose that popped open while the cannon were being fired to flush out any potentially explosive buildup of muzzle gases.
		The cannon blast deflectors were not fitted, as they were not seen as necessary for a machine that operated at low altitudes in the ground-attack role.

	Starfury-Thunderbolt
		The Aurora artillery, as well known (see Aurora) is based upon two Copeland JCR-266 revolver plasma pulse cannons, a powerful weapon, burst capable and with a 900 shots minute rate of fire, and two Copeland-Westighouse CWD-205 plasma discharge bolters, high power, low (45 shots/minute) rate of fire weapons well suited for the anti ship roles.
		The weapon is not extremely heavy (it weighs not more than three times a revolver plasma bolter), but it is bulky, more than five meters long and about 1.5 tall and wide, and seemed poorly designed to fit in a fighter.
		It came even too late, when the Badger was yet under production, but, due to its sheer power and its capability to saturate a target, was appreciated by the Marine Corps, that suggested to the Lockheed to study an installation in their new Thunderbolt fighter.

		The 37mm Hotchkiss cannons spread all over the world, their use was documented at least in 28 different countries.
		This cartridge was developed for the Shpitalny Sh-37 cannon, but this cannon was very unreliable and only a small test batch was fitted to LaGG-3 and Il-2 fighters for trials.
		The recoil operated cannon was intended to engage German tanks and armored vehicles, as well as to destroy hostile aircraft with a single hit.

		The lesson of WWII was that the German, Italian and Japanese fighters could reach out and touch the Americans with their cannon main armament, while the latter had to get up close and personal with the.50 cal main armament of the P-51 and P-47.
		The breech rotor, to which are attached the 6 barrels, revolves inside the breech housing.
		A revolver cannon such as the Mauser BK27 (fitted in the Tornado) does not have this problem, as it reaches its maximum rate of fire instantly.

	Book Review
		The little MiG-21 would have had a hard job carrying the claimed "one 37-mm cannon in the nose and a 30-mm cannon in the along the fuselage" (sic) when the standard gun armament was of course the neat little twin-barrelled GSh-23.
		The American Armament Company is described as the "prime producer of cannons when the seeds of World War II were being sown in the late 1930s" but the only thing that AAC was good at was publicity; their guns were technical failures never adopted by the USA.
		The P-38 did not have a "23mm Madsen cannon" (it was considered but rejected), and the statement that the P-36F had a 23mm gun under each wing is misleading; one XP-36F was temporarily fitted with them for trial purposes.

	Untitled Document
		The 37 mm Hotchkiss revolver gun was used extensively on land, that is in the German and French forts for the defence of the ditches.
		Denel is offering a new turret with their own 35mm externally-driven EMAK cannon as a replacement for 90mm manually-loaded guns on the Ratel and other light armoured cars (not exactly an upgunning in calibre, but an interesting shift of emphasis away from general fire support and towards the anti-armour role).
		It now appears that the 20mm version of the cannon was fitted to about a dozen of the 25 Curtis Hawk 75N supplied to Thailand, one gun being installed in a fairing under each wing, but these were removed at some point because of their effect on the aircraft's performance.

	Wiesel RMK-30 - Point of Existence Forum
		Not quite sure how it functions on a 30mm cannon though, but seeing as this is a 'revolver operated' weapon, I imagine the cartidges are held in a revolver, that is open in the back, and rotates after each shot, placing a new in the firing position.
		In the case of both a cannon shell and a rocket propellant gases are generated which impart kinetic energy to the projectile.
		This would explain why it must use a revolver type action, if there's little or no back force on the casing itself, the weapon must be operated in a somewhat unconventional way.

		This later became one 37-mm (1.46-in) N-37 cannon situated on the right-hand side, and two 23-mm (0.9-in) NS-23 cannon on the left-hand side.
		Initial armament was two Z3nun nose cannon; a 37mm cannon was added later.
		It retained the two 23mm Nudlelmann cannon of the early fighters, and was used for operational conversion, but latterly for advanced flying and armament training.

	Rheinmetall AG - 10/03/2005: Skyranger — the self-propelled multi-mission system against air and ground targets
		Short system reaction times, a management system optimised for modern threat scenarios and high flexibility in the selection of effectors, combine to guarantee the protection of rapid reaction forces, peacekeeping troops and mechanised units, as well as stationary assets.
		As well as providing heightened security and survivability, this enables optimum positioning of the individual Skyranger systems on the ground: the effectors can be deployed to get the most of lethality out of their zone, while the radar systems can be placed in order to exploit their maximum range.
		Its 35 mm revolver cannon, teamed with the tremendous destructive power of its 35 mm ammunition, mean that the Skyranger Gun System is foreordained for the successful engagement of air and ground targets.

	World Defence Industry Files - M61 Vulcan
		While captured German designs (principally the Mauser MG213C) showed the potential of the single-barrel revolver cannon, practical rate of fire was still limited by ammunition feed and barrel wear concerns.
		With multiple barrels, the rate of fire per barrel could be lower than a single-barrel revolver cannon while still giving a superior total rate of fire.
		The Vulcan is a Gatling gun: each of the cannon's six barrels fires once in turn during each revolution of the barrel cluster.

		The advantage revolver cannons have is that they have a higher initial rate of fire because they don't need to spin up like a rotary cannon.
		I think as an anti-aircraft weapon rotary cannon have the advantage, but for shooting other AFVs I think a revolver cannon would be better suited because of better accuracy and larger rounds (30mm ones are available that are around 100kgs).
		I think a 30mm Aden cannon would be good, seeing as how we are already using it on the Hawk and I think it uses the NATO 30mm like the tiger.
