In Japan during WWII it would be unlikely that a Army weapon would be used in a Navy plane ... there was just too much interservice rivalry to allow that to happen!.
Ingame it is the same cannon as seen on the Ki-84-Ic but in real life the A6M3-32Kai mounted the Type5 cannon while the Ki-84 mounted the Ho-155 cannon. I guess the two of them were reasonably similar so the use of the existing weapon appears justified!
