    depends on what you need... The 35mm is a better gun for a true anti-aircraft role 9long range and heavier shell). But if you need point defense the cheaper 23mm will do the job. The lack of a crew station tells me this is meant for an emplaced point defense role of high value targets likely to be subject to a cruise missile attack.

    Nothing n3rdy about 40K buddy Or is that what I just keep telling myself lol!!!. I dont think we have to worry about Iran until such times as we see some "Superheavy" tanks rolling of the production line.

    The ROF must be pretty low on that thing, or I'm guessing the recoil would push it around, even WITH the outriggers down.

    I can see an Orc named Boolit Spitta or Shell Shocka manning (or orcking...that sounds kinda dirty ) that contraption.

    We better reclassify the Ontos as top secret or they might add two more barrels and a 361 Chrysler V8 and really show us.

    The lack of a crew station
    The fourth image in the first post has the operator in it - the picture of that Iatola guy with glasses seen between the barrels .. it works by mental telepathy - he sits in his office and guides it with his mind.

    LOL...remember the big controversy I caused in the "OTHER" place over these stupid guns? Holy crap you woulda thunk I mocked Allah! 8 23mm cannons matted together on an old Sperry 90mm Skysweeper mount.

    After looking at the posts I see 40K is played or known by many. I got banned for posting this as their latest and greatest fighter in an Iranian Defense forum:

    What I truly think is that the Military Leadership of Iran has found the new and improved advantages of CRACK and Warhammer 40K. God...I mean Allah...knows thats where they are headed.

    Its not going to be to funny to the operator when a missle comes screaming in from a UAV or Helo he cannot even see to target and blows him to pieces.

    Oh thats right, they have lasers now, well there goes that plan.
