S6-TLAC "Cavalry"

The Section 6 twin linked autocannon (TLAC) is an effective anti-armor weapon of war. It fires at a whopping four shells per second on a fully automatic trigger and with twin barrels overheating is an issue of the past.

About the Section 6 Twin Linked Autocannon

The Section Six Twin Linked Autocannon features a twin barrel alternating system which severely limits the amount of heat the weapon generates. This assists it in maintaining an operational heat level while coolant systems beneath the surface assist the weapon keeping an even lower heat to nearly remove it from heat seeking apertures entirely. The weapon is extremely large and must be mounted on a vehicle; typically seen mounted on IFVs, tanks or other such land vehicles.
