Yes while the M134 minigun is capable of mowing down waves of zombies. The m134 gun also is capable of mowing down waves of kids in the matter of seconds with its 7.62 mm bullets having the velocity speed for 3000 feet per second breaking the super sonic sound barrier which comes from its 6 powerful rotating barrels powered by a external eletric motor source which can spit it up to 6000 revolutions per minute faster than a car going 65 mph. 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 a adult being.in a test if a UH-1Y or any helicopter that has a mounted M134 minigun the test showed that if 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 being used there are sub verisons of that are mounted on to aircraft, just to list a few. GAUSE-17/A, GAU-17/A, and MXU-470/A are used in aircraft. The GAUSE-17/A and GAU-17/A are used in helicopters while the MXU-470/A is used in the AC-130. The GAUSE-17/A minigun is a sub verison of the M134 minigun which is capable of having different modes on such as the low firing rate which can shoot 7.62 mm bullets from its 6 rotating barrels at 2000 rounds per minute or the user can choose the high firing rate which can shoot 7.62 bullets from its 6 rotating barrels at 4000 rounds per minute. However its velocity speed is reducded to 2800 feet per second but can be fed a 4400 round linked belts of the 7.62 bullets. Although it is good for suppression the M134 minigun wins in the ammo belt due to its ability to do 6000 rounds per minute and a ammo reserve that can contain up to 500-5000 rounds the m134 miingun can use it all up while the GAUSE-17/A cannot. The GAU-17 is very similar to the GAUSE-17/A however the only difference is that the GAU-17 has higher fire rate which can send out 5000 rounds per minute but has the same velocity speed although they both are made for passengers to fire from the cockpit of the helicopter while the M134 minigun is more of a minigun that is armed on a aircraft it self however can be used for passenger use as well. MXU-470/a is another minigun that is yet mounted onto aircraft rather than passenger use, thus being because the weights are lighter but have more recoil affects unless mounted. There are many more such as the XM18 minigun, which were pods used in AH-1 cobras in Vietnam, M18E1 minigun which were a sub verison of pods, SUU-11B/A, SUU-11A/A, GAU-2B and many more differnet miniguns. All though all miniguns being generally the same, some miniguns have the same specs but however the gears/the way it works inside is largely different, each model was made to their own speicfications for the user/gunner for their preferences.
