Talk:GSh-30-1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Um... this gun is not like the Vulcan except for the fact that they are both aircraft mounted. It's closest mechanical relatives would be either the Oerlikon 35mm cannon (both are single barrel and high rate of fire) or the GAU-8 or GAU-13 30mm Gatling cannons (both are aircraft mounted and of 30mm). 137.53.85.122 (talk) 19:39, 4 April 2008 (UTC)Alex

Not sure why there is a comment in there stating "It is perhaps important to note that US aircraft may come with up to 940 rounds" given that there is no information on the amount of ammunition carried with a GSh-30-1 in this article. Not only does it not actually give any measure of comparison but it seems like it was added by someone wishing to specifically criticise the GSh-30-1 and support a pro-US arms position. I do not see what place it has in this article without proper means of comparison and a more thorough explanation of the differences in philosophy for aircraft mounted auto-cannon's.
