The m134 minigun is capable of mowing down kids in a matter of seconds with its 7.62 MM bullets having its velocity speed for 3000 feet per second breaking the super sonic sound barrier which comes from its powerful rotating barrels powered by external electric motor source which can spit it up to 6000 revolutions per minute faster than a pancake mixer weighing 165 pounds.The backpack alone weighs 60 pounds which carries the motor and does not include the ammo while the m134 minigun weighs around 105 pounds and the reason why it is so heavy is to counter the recoil produced by it which is around 90 pounds of forces which is strong enough to knock out an adult.Being in a test,if any helicopter mounted the m134 minigun on them the test showed that it were to fly by near a football field and fire for a full 30 seconds every 5 inch square block on the field has a 100% chance of getting hit.Although rather than the m134 minigun being used there are sub versions of it that are mounted on to aircrafts.Just to list a few the gause 17/a,gau 17/a,and mxu-470/a are all mounted on aircrafts.The gause and gau 17/a are both mounted on helicopters while the mxu-470/a is used on the ac-130 gunship.The gause 17/a is a subversion of the m134 minigun which is capable of having different such as the low firing rate which can shoot 7.62 MM from its 6 rotating barrels at 2000 rpm of the user can choose the high firing rate which can shoot 7.62 bullets from its 6 rotating barrels at 4000 rpm.However,its velocity speed is reduced to 2800 feet per second but can be fed a 4400 round linked belts of the 7.62 MM bullets.Although it is good for suppression the m134 minigun wins in the ammo belt due to its ability to do 6000 rpm and a ammo reserve that can contain up to 500-5000 rounds the m134 minigun can use it all up while the gause 17/a cannot.
