That sounds about right
Ping a suggestion mod with that
Yippee
Thats not the 30mm tho, the captions wrong, its a 25mm, you can tell from the longer barrel
30mm:
25mm:
Spoiler
The length of barrel is irrelevant to the vehicles calibre, both short and long have been spotted for the CS/SA5 and Type 625.
Flash suppressor. Similar ones found on the AK-630 funnily enough
Anyways relevant bug report

A flash suppressor does count to barrel length unless it’s not a permanent attachment and in which it does look to be one for this specific CS/SA5 (may be wrong however).
Anyways relevant bug report
Is this the bug report for the AHEAD (or whatever it is)?
Yes an AHEAD-like ammo

The CS/SA5 does definitely need APFSDS and/or APDS as a defensive measure and especially at 12.0, if the Gepard gets this luxury at 8.3 then so should the CS/SA5 which sits at a vastly higher BR (12.0).
Same applies to AHEAD to counter incoming munition, especially as the CS/SA5 has TWS to enhance its interception capabilities, I doubt the IR missiles and that being the FB-10/A will be effective against said munition (as their IR signature wouldn’t be incredibly high).
The advanced armor-piercing shells of this gun should have been developed at the request of the navy. They need the close-in weapon system to have sufficient armor-piercing ability to destroy anti-ship missiles with semi-armor-piercing warheads.
