The M693 (full designatin "Canon Mitrailleur 20 mm Modèle 693") is a French 20 mm automatic cannon designed by GIAT (now Nexter Systems). It is used on armored vehicles, aircraft, helicopters and naval vessels and has been exported to many different countries. The M693 features a dual feed system allowing the ammunition type to be changed depending on the target being engaged.
