Well, if somebody is pointed a twin-barrel 23mm anti-aircraft gun at me, then I'd call that a pretty strong opponent...[:D]
Bah. Any calibre less than 40mm is for wimps. [;)][:'(]
ETA: I started my career in the Army Air Defense. Hence I've had a long love affair with ms. Bofors [;)]
I USED to like you Per! [:D]
If man was meant to fly, god would've given him wings. Therefore, it's the duty of all Air Defensemen to correct this aberration

We had all kinds of stuff to play with. Coarse/fine synchro chains connected to a 4.5in Mk5 gun turret, dropped and replaved a breech block on 4.5 Mk6, paralleling generators (even did that on the Galatea at the tender age of 18). Oh yeah, Seacat directors too.

Yes, you must now throw salt over your shoulder and dance on your enemies graves by moonlight at the next full moon lest the curse fall on you.
