The worlds biggest machinegun.

Burst rate of fire was a whopping 14rds in 45sek

Its "real" designation is bandkanonvagn 1, or bkan 1 for short (models ranging from A to C)

Only drawbacks, they cost an arm and a leg and weighed a ton (well, 53 metric tons actually...).

Pretty impressive for a sixties design IMO.
