<<This was interesting the best 20mm Cannon of the war was built by the 
Japanese
 redesigning the Browning 50cal. They built 15mm and 20mm variety. >>

Huh? I've seen the displays at the USAFM of weapons and not one of the 
Japanese weapons looks work beans. Most of them are oversized and overweight. 

The German Mauser MG151 series were judged as top line weapons for their rate 
of fire and durability, and after the war were used by the US to develop the 
Pontiac M139 20mm revolver cannon which we used until we switched to the 
Vulcan. Those came in 15mm and 20mm sizes. 

Browning's designs are still in use -- note that 81 years after it was 
developed the US is still using "Ma Deuce", Browning's .50 caliber.
