FIRST CF GUN EVER :)
Sorry for the clickbait tytle. This is the first CF autocannon on SP. CF means Chaff-Flare. This gun uses a combination of chaffs and flares to create realistic effect of firing.
I was informed that Othawne made such a weapon before me, but I'm the first to upload one.
Instructions:
- Pitch and yaw to drive the simple platform to the target;
- Trim and VTOL to aim;
- Flares/V to fire;
- If you want more damage, mirror flare dispenser (just behind the flash suppressor).
50 rounds of ammo. It can set a destroyer on fire and sink it with sustained fire. The gun is free to use with credit. The technique is free to use without credit.
Chassis was quickly put together simply to carry the gun around. Don't pay attention to it. Gun is low-part, designed to be used as a subassembly.
Trivia:
M.Corp M1-23-2 is a naval deck gun for close range defence of the vessel. It is remotely operated and is loaded with a 50-round detachable box magazine. This example is loaded full of incendiary ammo.
Enjoy

This is still cool
@1x1x1x1x2 that's the whole point. Back in a day, we didn't have a cannon, so we used what we had. This was one option, detachers that shoot Boom25s were the other.
whoa this is soo cool
LOL IT ACTUALLY DAMAGE THE USS DESTROYER
@EternalDarkness for some reason it doesn't work for me
@FireFast212 it worked when I made it. That's literally how I tested it...
@EternalDarkness i spawned on the beast and i tried to hit the destroyers, isn't that close range?
@FireFast212 it does at close range. At longer range, flares despawn.
it does not do any damage
Cool!
@CCCP I don't know. Damage it does is based on collision, so there's a chance it'll go straight through the opponent on MP due to synchronisation not being quite good, I thing.
@AerialFighterSnakes kinetic energy of the flare.
@CRJ900Pilot for a proper Boom25 gun, I suggest you talk to Leehopard. Or just steal the gun from my latest ship and put it in a different fuselage cover. It has 10 Boom25s with muzzle flash. Of course, credit in description is needed for such a difficult-to-make part.
It also needs to be 0.5 thick and look like the cannon on the M1 Abrams
Could you make this concept with bombs too? I’m building a tank and need it to fire boom 25, boom 50, and C/F. It needs to have recoil for all and muzzle flash for all. Could you help please?
Man please do not say click bait cause this cannon works.
@LuukPlanes not as far as I know, unfortunately.
Uhm, this may be a weird question, but is there any way you can make the chaff launch while pressing the bomb button? I cant do this since im on mobile
I know the tehnique how It can destroy a ship
Yeah, I thought of that after I posted. You would need to activate both inputs at the same time. Bit of a bugger, that. @EternalDarkness
@GhostHTX you can clip a wing gun, but you can't set it to flares input, and can't set flares to gun input.
@EternalDarkness Just a thought - would it be possible to clip in a regular wing gun into the barrel of this - maybe synchronising the fire rate with that of the cannon? That way it would be effective against ground and air targets?
awesome!
@Noahater5245 it doesn't work on planes, unfortunately.
Have you tried blowing a plane out of the sky with this thing yet? @EternalDarkness
