Why does it have two barrels?
If I had to make up something, since by canon it shoots high explosive rockets, the exhaust has to go somewhere, and this solution might even reduce recoil.
In reality, I think the designers just saw the picture of an AK with the gas cylinder and didn't know what it was for.
Which makes sense since they are Brits.
Top one is a camera apparently.
