75 mm is much cooler than that 
But that looks much more effective indeed, I just like the 75 mm because of the recoil that throws out a shell

:roll: well add up the 2x 40mm + faster rate of fire & the fact that its on a smaller more manouverable fighter & you get something very effective
Vickers S gun could fire its magazine of 15/16 rounds, weighing 2.5 lb (1.13 kg) each, at a rate of 100 rounds per minute (9 seconds for 15 rounds) (0.6 seconds per round) (+two 303 mgs to assist in aiming the cannons)
In comparison...
Me 410 Hornisse: 50-mm
Fed by a 21 round cylindrical magazine, the cannon was aimed using a ZFR 4a telescopic sight located in the nose just above the gun itself. The BK 5 cannon weighed 1,190 lb (540 kg) and could fire up to 50 rounds per minute. (21 rounds in 25.2 seconds) (1.2 seconds per round)
Mosquito Mk XVIII: 57-mm
25 rounds of ammunition, weighing 7 lb (3.2 kg) each, and the automatic loader could fire the entire magazine in just 20 seconds. (0.8 seconds per round)
B-25G/H Mitchell: 75-mm
The cannon was loaded and fired manually by a single crewman, the task being delegated to the navigator/cannoneer. Each 75-mm shell weighed 15 lb (6.8 kg), and a total of 21 rounds were carried.
