Because of this, the gun was frequently loaded with explosive or incendiary ammunition in an attempt to increase terminal effects on aircraft. VariantsThe Type 1 was produced in two variants. The Ho-103 was used in fixed installations, while the Ho-104 was used in flexible installations.[1] DesignThe 12.7x81SR allowed the Type 1 to fire at a rate of 900 RPM, but the poor suitability of the Browning action to synchronization reduced the rate of fire to 400 RPM in synchronized installations.[1] Reference1. ^1 2 Rottman, Page 22. 2. ^http://www.dragonsoffire.com/aircraft-jarmy.htm 3. ^Rottman, Page 22.
