[edit] cartridge information incorrect

The article says the gun uses the Rheinmetall MK20 Rh202 "shell". This is incorrect for three reasons: (1) Rheinmetall MK20 Rh202 is a gun not a type of ammunition, (2) the cartridge used by the Rheinmetall MK20 Rh202 (20x139) is different from that used by the FlaK 30 (20x138B), (3) it's not a "shell" its a "cartridge".

Similarly "calibre" is 20 mm not "20 x 139 mm" as the article says, which is wrong for two reasons.

So I'm editting the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cabalamat (talk • contribs) 06:13, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
