112mm Cannon may refer to any 112mm caliber cannon or autocannon in use by The Phoenix Milita. 112mm caliber cannons are also used as the armament for many Phoenix Dynamix products.

112mm Autocannon

Despite the fact that many of the 112mm are attached to auto-loaders, the 112mm Autocannon is the only one designed specifically for sustained rapid fire. 112mm Autocannons are employed in single and double mounts as heavy anti-aircraft artillery on naval vessels and ground installations.

112mm Rifled Cannon

The 112mm Rifled cannon is used as a light naval and ground based artillery cannon. It is very similar to the 112mm Autocannon, but has a slightly lower rate of fire, can withstand higher pressure rounds and is usually fitted with a longer barrel. The M212 112mm Howitzer is a typical example of the 112mm Rifled cannon.
