The Oerlikon 20 mm cannon is a series of autocannons based on an original German Becker Type M2 20 mm cannon design that appeared very early in World War I. Widely produced by Oerlikon Contraves and by others, its various models saw service with both Allied and Axis forces during World War II. Versions of the cannon were still in use in 2026.
