Damn, I didn't realize the guns on planes were that powerful. Reading up on it more, these autocannons can fire so fast they can use up all the ammunition a plane carries in 1.5 seconds. Talk about overkill, lol.
For fun, I decided to look up what gun produced the most recoil of all time. Turns out it's a Nazi made gun. Recoil was 5,112,000 kg·m/s. To put it into perspective, the recoil force of an AR-15 is 1.5 kg-m/s. Crazy.

You mean artillery piece? The Paris Gun perhaps? Or Dora/Gustav? Maybe the V-3 "Millipede"?
I think the Gerald Bull Guns were way up there too.
