The M310 smooth-bore high-velocity cannons, or simply M310 guns, are two 120mm guns mounted on the M850 "Grizzly" Main Battle Tank.[1] The cannons are jokingly referred to as the "main funs" by the crews of the Grizzly.[2]
Overview
The M310 guns are considered to be much more powerful than the Scorpion's 90mm high-velocity cannon.[3] The weapon can be loaded with canister shells, which produce a large, high-volume carpet of submunitions, greatly increasing the weapon's lethality against tightly packed targets.[1] The cannons are capable of overwhelming an energy shielded enemy vehicle's defences and piercing its hull in a single volley. When paired, the two cannons have a high rate of fire due to the Grizzly's turret featuring a mechanism that utilises the recoil impulse of one gun to rapidly load the other.[2]
