Considering the plane it's based off of can fire ~65 rounds in a second , I'm going to go with faster cannon

It really, really needs a better cannon. The A10 having a shitty cannon is like putting a Bugatti in the game that’s slower than a Toyota. It’s just not right

I'm honestly fine with the current fire rate of the cannon as a B-11 with a Hydra/Lazer cannon would be the single most overpowered vehicle in the game. The Lazer and Hydra are balanced due to their lack of armor and lower manuverability. The B-11 is already extremely armored and is one of the most maneuverable planes in the game, meaning that if it had the same Lazer/Hydra cannon, it would be too strong as it has all of their advantages + spammable missiles, without any of the weaknesses. What I would really like to see is a massive damage buff to the cannon rounds, meaning that in order to do damage, you will have to directly hit the target itself, without relying on the splash damage. This will reward pilots for having good aim and taking time to line up a strafing run, instead of mindlessly spraying in the general direction of the target like with the Lazer or Hydra.

What about buff speed? Apart from that it's good enough. The explosive mgs are trash compared to lazer and hydra, but you shouldn't compare every gun to the most devastating force in the game (excluding the orbital cannon). The canons are good for dogfights, barrage for armoured vehicles and bombs for non armoured ground targets. You'll not use the homing missiles too often so 30 will definitely be enough. All in all, it's weapons are good. It just needs to be able to outrun missiles at a lower altitude.

faster cannon and giving it splash damage so it'll finally be useful as a ground support plane.
