Even 25 mm rounds, as used by the Apache helicopter and the Bushmaster cannon on Bradely fighting vehicles for example, / nitpick mode on: Apache cannon is actually 30mm, although a lighter weight cartridge than that used by the monster GAU8 Avenger cannon.

Apache cannon is actually 30mm, although a lighter weight cartridge than that used by the monster GAU8 Avenger cannon. I remembered that right after hitting "post". However I think other helios use the 25mm, and if not they use a 20mm.
