Cannon Strafing<br />

The cannon is located in the starboard wing root extension and is normally used in<br />

conjunction with the laser rangefinder. The cannon is extremely accurate, having a<br />

fire rate of 1,500 rounds per minute, with 150 rounds ammunition. The barrel of<br />

the GSh-301 has a 2,000-round life, equivalent to 80 seconds of fire at usual<br />

1500 rpm. The cannon is fixed in the forward direction.<br />

During an attack on ground targets, the cannon and unguided rockets are<br />

employed in effectively the same way. The main differences are the maximum<br />

effective range and the minimum range (dictated by firing safety), which for<br />

GSh-301 are 1800 and 700 meters, respectively.
