The M134 rotary canon has for several decades been the poster-child for gatling-derived aircraft and static-emplacement weapon systems. Despite the overally simple design concepts, it’s a clockwork nightmare. The original models by GE too had notable hangups relating to feed reliability, making safe, and inadvertant chainfire. The solutions were provided by both DeGroat Tactical and Dillon Aerospace (the G and D variants respectively), introducing a clutch, improved delinker and feed chutes.
These improvements were not added to the Predator OR Terminator 2 handheld Miniguns, and this model fixed that. That is to say this is a MODERN M134D, on an updated rendition of the “Ol’ Painless” Handheld Minigun from Predator, and with some of the limitations of Arma’s handling in mind.
