The light [[autocannon]] was prototyped in the late 3050s, and introduced in [[3068]] by the [[Federated Suns]], seeing full-scale production only after the [[Word of Blake]] [[Jihad]] destroyed the [[New Avalon Institute of Science]]. The '''light AC/5''' was, as its name implies, a smaller, lighter version of the [[autocannon/5]]. While it did not have the range of its larger cousin, it retained the ability to use the same [[:Category:Special_Munitions|special munitions]].<ref name="TMp270"/>
