The Ammunition Backpack is cool and all, but having to lug both it and your gun may be a hassle. Why not combine them both and get yourself a Backpack Cannon! Yeah, it would probably be really hard to aim, but come on. Compare Shoulder Cannon, Weaponized Animal, Awesome Backpack, Jet Pack, and Weaponized Exhaust. |

Destiny has Valus Tlu'urn, a Cabal commander who has a giant artillery cannon as his weapon of choice. note This is due to the Cabal specialising in wars of attrition. Tlu'urn's cannon has recharging arc cells as noted in his Grimore card which means that he is able to fire it indefinitely. | |

The War Against the Chtorr. A malfunctioning Spider Tank robot orders McCarthy to Put Down Your Gun and Step Away (unfortunately it's stuck in a loop and won't go to the next stage of verifying his identity). McCarthy does so, then remote-triggers the rockets in his backpack to provide a distraction while he makes a run for the bigger rocket launcher in his jeep. | |

A few of the various characters in The Transformers cartoon have guns on their backs. This is usually due to having parts of their alternate mode ending up there, with the most notable being Brawl and Onslaught of the Combaticons (a tank and an artillery truck, respectively). They are apparently still functional, but rarely used since they can only fire straight upward while standing, and few Autobots are airborne opponents. | |

The OZ-07MS Tragos from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing featured a backpack cannon and a hoverskirt that made it resemble the original Guntank, although both could be detached to allow the Tragos to function as a conventional mobile suit as well.

The Gundam franchise has many examples from pretty much every universe. The most iconic examples would be the Guncannon and Guntank from the original series. The RX-78-01 from Gundam: The Origin had a backpack-mounted cannon and one beam sword rack, instead of the traditional pair of saber racks. The RX-78-02, Amuro's Gundam, could have one of the racks replaced by a similar cannon. And of course, this also applies to the Origin versions of the Guncannon and Guntank. The GM Cannon II and Xamel from Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory. With the Xamel, the weapon's size actually makes it easy to mistake it for a Shoulder Cannon. The Zaku Cannon, introduced in Mobile Suit Variations, was found to be unstable due to its backpack being too heavy and the recoil being too great, though some units were later used by the Earth Federation in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, and by Zeon remnants years later in Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn. The OZ-07MS Tragos from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing featured a backpack cannon and a hoverskirt that made it resemble the original Guntank, although both could be detached to allow the Tragos to function as a conventional mobile suit as well. The manga adaptation of the series gave a similar cannon pack to Heavyarms. After War Gundam X: The titular Gundam features the backpack-mounted Satellite Cannon system. Its Mid-Season Upgrade, the DoubleX, naturally has twin cannons. The Doppelhorn Striker Pack from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny is basically this. It isn't seen too often, but can be attached to any Striker-capable Mobile Suit (such as the standard-issue 105-Dagger). The Integrated Weapons Striker Pack from SEED-MSV line has this amongst its many weapons. Fumina's Powered GM Cardigan from Gundam Build Fighters Try can swap between beam cannons and Gatling guns, though the latter never appear in the anime itself, only in the model kit and video games. |

Its Mega Evolution introduced in Pokémon X and Y changes it to a single, much larger cannon while giving it two arm-mounted cannons.

A handful of BattleTech Battlemechs have this with rear-firing weapons, some being literal backpacks that fire into the rear arc like two of the Medium Lasers mounted on the Atlas AS 7-D. The more typical 'mounted on the back but firing forward' variety is actually rarer, with the Shadow Hawk being the most well known, as it is based on the Dougram mentioned above. The Marauder certainly counts as well with the Autocannon 5 mounted over its hunched profile, later Reseen depictions would move the cannon mount to one of the side torso sections. | |

In Warhammer 40,000, the Tyranid Biovore is a living Backpack Cannon. Tau battlesuit jetpacks have mounting points for either support systems or weapons, with missile launchers most commonly shown in GW's in-house models fitted to the jetpack. The old Broadside models had the best demonstration of this in the franchise; their backpacks were fitted with a pair of railguns, which are at least twice as long as a man is tall - one on each shoulder (the newer ones now wield their weapons like a rifle, replacing the missile launcher "hands". |

The now explosive spear is fired like a missile from under the shield, which is now attached to each Gaossmon's back. Combined with the Gaossmons' Zerg Rush tactics, this makes for a small Macross Missile Massacre. | |

In StarCraft II, the Thor superheavy siege walker and its Super Prototype Odin both feature a set of four backpack-style guns, described as 330mm high-ex cannon (you could fire a smallish person out of a gun like that). While they are used for single salvoes rather than being an alternate mode shift like the Siege Tank, the mech still has to hunch back and take up a firing stance, rendering it briefly immobile while the weapons are being fired. The results are usually worth the hassle. | |
