− The '''Hyper-Velocity Autocannon (HVAC)''' family of weapons is based on the [[Autocannon]]. While they have the same damage classes, they're capable of firing much further. However, in order to obtain the increased ballistic range, the hyper-velocity ammo is larger and uses a unique type of propellant, reducing the number of shots per ton of ammo along with a couple other drawbacks, such as a chance of the weapon exploding, and a thick smoke trail every time the weapon is fired.<ref>''[[Tactical Operations]],'' p. 284 – 286</ref> + The '''Hypervelocity Autocannon (HVAC)''' family of weapons is based on the [[Autocannon]].
