>>>>>>>>>> MODERATOR'S INSTRUCTIONS <<<<<<<<<<
​

Please do not carry issues over from other sites onto SD. If you feel you need help in that way, contact people by PM whom you feel would be receptive to helping you.

Also as the RULES indicate, do not characterize the actions of single individuals towards whole nationalities or cultures. Individuals make mistakes...that does not mean, and should not be indicative of whole people's.

The RULES OF BEHAVIOR make it clear that this is not tolerated on SD.

Thanks.

Do not respond to this moderation.

From these photos the chin gun of the WZ-10 looks really light. Was there ever a confirmation on what caliber it is? 12.7, 14, 20, 23, or 30mm, whether it is more a HMG or an autocannon?

12.7x107 and 14.5x114mm have no purpose on a modern antitank chopper. 20mm, 23mm, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm,37mm and 40mm are the only reasonable options for a proper attack helicopter, however given the weight and structure of the gun on the Z10 shows a smaller calibre then the beefy rounds on that list and the fact that the PLA as is does not use 20mm rounds strongly suggests the 23×115mm round.
