| The '''35mm autocannon'''<ref name="Bnet">[http://www.bungie.net/projects/halo3/content.aspx?link=chopperfiction '''Bungie.net''': ''TYPE-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle "Chopper" '']</ref> is a [[Jiralhanae]] [[weapon]] mounted on the [[Type-25 Chopper]], which originally used [[Type-25 Spiker]]s mounted on the sides when the vehicle was first designed.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 335''</ref>

| ==Description==
| |
| The 35mm autocannons are the primary offensive asset of [[Jiralhanae]] [[Type-25 Chopper]]s, and each Chopper is mounted with four linked forward-firing 35mm autocannons. This cannon is surprisingly powerful, and its ammunition is probably a smaller form of the [[Type-25 Brute Shot]] round, fired at a slower rate.

| ==Gameplay==
| |
| ===Tactics===
| |
| *The 35mm autocannon uses a very powerful shell, but has a very low rate of fire.
| |
| *The rounds are too slow to take down fast targets, and so it is most effective to lead targets.
| |
| *Use this gun on short-medium range.
| |
| *Drive forward or stop momentarily, because the guns are forward mounted on a mobile section of the Chopper.
| |
| *Don not attempt to use this gun against multiple targets simultaneously.
| |
| *Repeatedly tap the fire button instead of holding it down. This will increase the rate of fire.
| |
| *When facing this weapon, effective countering tactics are to:
| |
| **Avoid the incoming rounds, which are slow enough
| |
| **Prepare an anti vehicle weapon, as the driver may attempt to splatter you.
| |
| **Try to attack a Chopper driver with one or more allies: he/she won't be able to lead and shoot down multiple targets surrounding his/her craft
| |
| *The 35mm autocannon can only shoot down one enemy at a time, so don't rush among enemy formations, and don't stay there for too long, for this greatly increases the chances of you being killed.
| |
| *Avoid excessive turning while firing as this will throw off the rounds' trajectory.
| |
| *Do not use it against aircraft.
| |
| *The autocannons do produce some kickback, so when you are trying to pull off some move that requires lots of mobility you are advised to stop firing.
