The '''35mm Autocannon''' is a [[Covenant Loyalist]] vehicularly-mounted [[weapon]] mounted on the [[Brute Chopper]].
 
It is a semi-automatic 35mm cannon.
 
The 35mm Autocannon's are the primary offensive asset of Brute Chopper's, and each Brute Chopper is mounted with four linked forward-firing 35mm autocannon's.
 
This cannon is surprisingly powerful, its ammunition is probably a larger form of the Spiker round.
 
While it may seem surprising that Brutes would use such human-like ammunition, remember that Brute weaponry is not that different from humans firearms in that they both fire projectiles, not plasma rounds
 
It most likely uses a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gast_gun Gast firing mechanism].
 
==Tactics==
 
The 35mm Autocannon uses a very powerfull shell, but has a very low rate of fire. Also, the round are too slow for mobile objectives, so you must:
 
#Use this gun on short-medium range
#Lead targets
#Drive forward or stop momentaneously, because theyre forward mounted on a mobile section of the Chopper
#Dont use this gun against multiple objectives, avoid multiple combat
 
 
When facing this weapon, you must:
 
#Avoid the incoming rounds, which are slow enough
#Prepare an antivehicular weapon, because the driver will attemp to smash you
#Try to attack on teams a Chopper driver: he/she wont be able to lead and shot down multiple targets surrounding his/her craft
 
 
Remember that '''the 35mm Autocannon can only shoot down an enemy at a time''', so dont rush among enemy formations, and dont stay there for too long
