==Description==
The '''Hyper-Velocity Autocannon/10''' is based on the [[Autocannon/10]]. While it has the same damage class, it is capable of firing much further. However, in order to obtain the increased ballistic range, the hyper-velocity ammo is larger, reducing the number of shots per ton of ammo. Like [[Ultra Autocannon|Ultra]] or [[Rotary Autocannon|Rotary]] autocannons, Hyper-Velocity autocannons are unable to make use of special munitions.<ref name="THp53+">''Tactical Handbook'', pp. 53-54, "Hyper-Velocity Autocannon"</ref><ref name="TOp285">''Tactical Operations'', p. 285, "Hyper-Velocity Autocannon (HVAC)"</ref>
