That would be a lot of 76mm then! - Scimitar, Shirley  !. (and 27 + 28 usually)
The Rarden is not an autocannon, per se. It is a rather accurate self-loading 30mm with the ability to fire a maximum of 2 clips of 3 at a rather low (180RPM?) rate if required (AA fire really).
So it's classed as an autocannon weapon class 19 simply to enable the odd blast of auto at passing helos, but fire at ground targets will mainly be 1-2 rounds each individually triggered, not default bursts of 5-10 as with other autocannons. Thus the ammo lasts longer for a given quantity.

Actually no. I was wrong for the name  but I meant to say Warrior II. It has 30mm and 38 and 38.
