Talk:Strike Witches
i have just finished watching this anime (with english subtitles) and think it is an AWESOME anime!!!
Does Anyone have a favourite witch in the series?
Type 99
Is not that gun. I may not know much about firearms, but the 99 has a curved magazine on the top, and this has a drum on the bottom. Its much different. 70.108.146.60 20:00, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
The weapon you refer to, the Type 99 machine gun, is essentially a Type 96 light machine gun modified to accept the more powerful 7.7x58mm Type 99 ammunition. The weapon depicted in Strike Witches looks like a Japanese Navy Type 99 "machine cannon," which is indeed fed from a drum as depicted and fires a far larger round (note that in the image of the assorted characters, Yoshika Miyafuji and Mio Sakumoto are noted as carrying "13mm Type 99"). However, I think the weapon being used in this anime is a fabrication; my research indicates the Type 99 cannon fired 20mm rounds, not 13mm. Hexslinger 11:26, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
