The autocannon is a turret-only ranged weapon. It is the main armament of the autocannon turret. It fires a 3-round burst that deals significant damage but with a minimum range.

This weapon cannot be independently obtained in normal play. It is provided here for comparisons sake.

Acquisition

Autocannons spawn on all autocannon turrets. However, it is not possible to obtain it directly in normal play. Buildings do not drop it upon destructions and pawns carrying it will not drop it on death, downing, or complete loss of manipulation like other weapons. It can be spawned in by the Debug actions menu but, like all unobtainable weapons, will disappear after being dropped.
