Looks like a .50 cal or 12.7 API or maybe a wimp 20mm thing. The pic resembles those I saw mostly. As long as they didn't hit a spar or half-empty fuel tank, very survivable.

Yes, 20mm HE from a Rheinmetall 202 firing 40 rounds a second. Hate to think where the other 120 odd rounds went! Didn’t half make a bang. Fortunately he didn’t quite get the lead right and hit the only bit of the aircraft that was not engine, fuel tank or pink bits.
