Porco Rosso (Japanese: 紅の豚, Hepburn: Kurenai no Buta, lit. Crimson Pig) is the sixth film from Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki. At the end of the 1920s, during the reign of the Italian fascists, the Pig-headed pilot Porco Rosso, a veteran of the First World War, fought for peace in the sky around the Mediterranean as a bounty hunter. On his travels, he teamed up with the talented mechanic Fiona. When Porco Rosso is challenged to a duel by a boastful pilot, a fight begins that will forever change the lives of the two flying aces

The following firearms are used in the anime film Porco Rosso:

Aircraft cannon

A large cannon that appears to be a very chunkily-rendered Solothurn S-18 20mm Anti-Tank Rifle given the stock, sight and side-loading, appears mounted on one of the pirates' planes. It loads using some kind of stripper clip arrangement rather than its usual box magazine, and the barrel and rounds are scaled up to the point it resembles a small tank gun.
