La-5FN needed VYa-23 cannon bite with it's ShVAK 20mm fast cannon. What if it tried one of each?

Hind-sight fantasy, who knows?

This offers a threat to light armored tanks as well as fighters in a dogfight. This was also done by the Yak fighter line, but it was more vulnerable to ground fire than the radial engined La-5FN against armored columns.
