The '''Anti-Aircraft Cannon,''' commonly referred to as the AA, is a primary weapon for [[Heavy]], added in the [[Fight or Flight]] update. It resembles an anti-aircraft cannon, scaled down so as to be carried by a person. Compared to the stock [[Minigun]], it has a much slower firing rate, less ammo, and a limited effective range. However, it fires high-damage hitscan bullets that explode when colliding with a surface or a player, or after a set distance, dealing splash damage to all enemies in its wake. The user can take damage (but not knockback) from their own explosions, so it is necessary to keep a short distance from whatever they are shooting at. This is assisted by the weapon's high knockback, preventing enemies from closing the distance between them and the Heavy.
