Colt Mk 12 cannon The Colt - Browning Mk 12 was a 20 mm cannon widely used by the United States Navy after World War II . Development . The Mk 12 was an advanced derivative of the wartime Hispano HS 404 that had been used on a variety of American and British fighter aircraft during World War II . It used a lighter projectile with a bigger charge for better muzzle velocity and higher rate of fire at the cost of hitting power . It entered U . S . Navy and U . S . Marine Corps service in the mid - 1950s , replacing the Navy ' s earlier M3 cannon . In service , the Mk 12 proved less than satisfactory . Although its muzzle velocity and rate of fire were acceptable , it was inaccurate and frequently unreliable . Pilots of the F - 8 Crusader over North Vietnam , in particular , appreciated the presence of the cannon , but jams and stoppages were common , especially following hard dogfight ing maneuvers . Nevertheless , the Mk 12 was standard cannon armament on gun - armed Navy and Marine Corps fighters from the early 1950s to the early 1960s , including the F4D Skyray , F3H Demon , A - 4 Skyhawk , F - 8 Crusader , F - 11 Tiger and early Navy versions of the A - 7 Corsair II . International customers of the A - 4 Skyhawk , F - 8 Crusader , and the A - 7 Corsair II also used the Mk 12 cannon : Argentina , Australia , Brazil , France , Kuwait , Malaysia , New Zealand , the Philippines and Portugal . The only exception were Israel and Singapore . The Israeli Air Force replaced the Mk 12 cannon with the 30 mm DEFA cannon in its Skyhawks , the Republic of Singapore Air Force fitted the 30 mm ADEN cannon . Indonesia later bought some used A - 4s from Israel . As of 2013 , the Mk 12 cannon is still in use in Skyhawks of the Argentine Air Force and the Brazilian Navy .
