Did you know that miniguns are more powerful than fish?

Everyone remembers that time when as a boy they watched Arnold fucking Schwarzenegger pick one up and make a bunch of police cruisers explode with it for some reason. Michael Bay himself was like holy shit I know what I'm doing with my life from now on.

Could a 20mm be man or team portable?
>>
>>65292889
Probably just barely, even if it was just 3 barrels they would be really heavy. ZPU-4s and 107mm MLRS are technically man portable, people can usually find a way to move things.

It's not the caliber, the thing is electrically driven. You need to lug around a power pack along with the ungodly amounts of ammo a few one-second bursts produces. Which is why they mount them on vehicles.
>>
>>65293092
A generator isn't much if you are lugging around a 20mm gun, the ammo thing is the main issue. There is a similar problem with Type 73 rocket launchers; yes you can break it down into man portable loads but the rockets weigh 40 lbs each.

It just explodes into gore... and it wasn't even shot.
>>
>>65293134
They were likely going pretty fast when they hit it.
>>
>>65293127
And you, presumably, know how much noise a generator makes in the woods. In a stationary position, it would be useless in ambushing.
>>
>>65293154
Yeah. Lithium batteries are pretty light these days but you still have the ammo issue. I can't really image a use case for it.
