The mention in the shooting thread of the M61 in airplanes got me remembering this build from Dillon Precision. 7.62x51 and 3000 rounds per minute. Could have cleared out CHOP in a few seconds.

I don't think I could afford to feed that beast. Probably a couple hundred bucks every time somebody gets a little heavy on the trigger. And we all know nobody would be giving it little burps. Gun Nut

What is the gun they use on the C-130 planes... A friend of mine, that in service for almost 30 years said "They" called it the "thunder Stick". It looks like a Gatling gun.

They've used a variety in the gunships. The minigun and the Vulcan both have 6 barrels and are known as rotary guns.

7.62 miniguns, M61 Vuclans, 40mm BOFORS cannons and 105mm Howitzers.

Yes, howitzers in an airplane.

Pretty sure their faces would read sheer terror once the body parts started flying.

That must be a Warthog .... I love it... Can you imagine one of these riot crowds ... if you had 2 or 3 Warthogs do a low level pass over them. They wouldn't even have to fire a round... It would take the street dept. a month to clean up the crap the mob was able to shake out of their trousers.
