Inglis 20mm Cannon

[David Dunlop]

I ran across an article about this weapon a couple of weeks back, which included photos of a quad mount sporting them during WW2. A very nice looking design.

Does anyone have any information about this gun? The weapons were very secondary to the topic of the article and no real indication was given regarding the extent of production of the gun by Inglis. It was mentioned the gun was pitched to the British, but they were too heavily invested in the Oerlikon and Hispano to be interested. It would be interesting to know performance specs on the Inglis and how it really compared to it's two competitors.
