between 2-4 normal infantry. Is it safe to assume then that a PA team
of
two could carry and fire a DFFG/1.

The PA carrying the cannon does not have the normal built-in laser but
does
carry a ballistic shield on the arm.
Sounds good. Although this would be more along the lines of a HEL/1.
The
descriptions in both SG & DS have the DFFG listed as firing "rounds"
like
normal tank guns.
The one I use for my PA has FC: d4, I: d12x2* using heavy weapon bands
and
uses ammo markers.
