Then inthat case, it's not the same as the Macross Gunship cannon.
Since one single shot in a vague direction, can wipe out thousands of ships.......without even hitting any of them directly.
The weapons on the Red Vajra are certainly anti-ship, but it's the equvilent to a 40mm autocannon on a Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
It has anti-armour rounds, designed to "defeat" Main Battle Tanks, (usually with a 4 shot salvo burst )
so when it meets anything less then a M.B.T it's more or less capable to take them on,
But taking on a M.B.T in reality, one on one is more risky.
The weapon is proven, but unless you can hit it in a vital spot, or have all your rounds hit, it's not going to stop the tank from hitting you with a one hit kill.
But the Macross Cannon is like putting a 120mm cannon on to a I.F.V, the same weapon that a Tank use.
so when it comes up to a M.B.T its got a weapon that can take it out...and some more.
