Talk:Patlabor: The Movie 2

Just thinking, doesn't Tsuge's RADHA mech in the intro have an M242 Bushmaster on the mini-turret? I think he's shooting at a Soviet 2K22 Tunguska SP AA vehicle, so that's also a pair of 30mm 2A38M cannons for the page. Also, I think the guns slung under the Extors were three-barreled rather than six barreled, so they'd be M197s. I'll check at some point. Vangelis2 08:56, 3 April 2011 (CDT)

It does look like a Bushmaster and is listed as a 25mm autocannon on material I've seen online, but it was firing at a far higher rate than the real Bushmaster. Also, unless there's a manually-operated version of he 2A38M, do not add it to the article. That scene also made me cringe in that they showed the Tunguska as having anti-armor missiles when it has exclusively anti-aircraft weaponry. The scene's depiction of RPG's as guided missiles also irked me since every RPG model ever made has had no guidance after launch. Orca1 9904 09:26, 3 April 2011 (CDT)

I don't recall the Tunguska even firing it's guns while Tsuge is looking at it, and the scene implies it isn't the only thing firing (just the only one he sees). I think in theory given Patlabor makes no bones about Labor armour being rubbish and the SA-19 is SACLOS, you probably could get a kill with one just by not bothering to set the fuze and using it as a kinetic penetrator; a 19-pound warhead going at Mach 2 is certainly going to ruin someone's day even if it doesn't detonate.
