Calibre has next to nothing to do with TL, and the 'heavy chaingun' is clearly so-named because it's bigger and heavier than the 'storm chaingun', and not because of any comparison with TL8 kit. It is also obviously a heavy machinegun equivalent, not something intended to equal a 20-30mm autocannon.

UT doesn't really have a weapons in the auto-cannon weight range - almost all the weapons are small arms or HMG sized, or heavy vehicle weapons. The exception are the plasma/fusion gatling guns.
