VIDEO: This Weapon Is Called The Terrorist Killer. Watch What It Can Do!

This video is a sort of presentation video for a very powerful weapon that is used in the fight against terrorism.

It is called the GAU 19B 50 Cal Gatling Gun, but the soldiers have dubbed it the Terrorist Killer. It is used by the army of the United States of America.

According to patriotnewsagency.info, the GAU-19/A is designed for a link less feed, but can be fed from a standard M9 linked belt if a delinker feeder is used.

The rate of fire is selectable to be either 1,000 or 2,000 rounds per minute. The Humvee armament kit version fires at 1,300 rounds per minute.

The average recoil force when firing is 500 pounds-force (2.2 kN). In January 2012, General Dynamics announced they would be delivering a new version designated the GAU-19/B.

It provides the same firepower in a lighter platform, weighing 106 lbs.

The GECAL 50 was first manufactured by General Electric, then by Lockheed Martin, and now by General Dynamics. Design work began in 1982.

Early prototypes had six barrels, but a three-barreled configuration is now standard. The GAU-19/A was originally designed as a larger, more potent version of the M134 Minigun.

Due to the loss of nine helicopters in Grenada GE started building prototypes of the weapon in both a three-barreled and a six-barreled configuration.

The six-barreled version was designed to fire 4,000 rpm, and could be adapted to fire up to 8,000 rpm. The GAU-19 takes 0.4 seconds to reach maximum firing rate.

Soon it was recommended as a potential armament for the V-22 Osprey. The magazine would be located underneath the cabin floor and could be reloaded in-flight.

However, plans to mount the gun were later dropped.

In 2005, the GAU-19/A was approved to be mounted on the OH-58D Kiowa helicopter.

It also could have been used on the Army’s now cancelled ARH-70. In January 2012, the U.S.

Army ordered 24 GAU-19/B versions for use on helicopters. All were delivered by the next month.

In 1999, the United States sent 28 GAU-19s to Colombia. Oman is known to use the GAU-19/A mounted on their HMMWVs.

The navy of Mexico uses MDH MD-902 series helicopters with the GAU-19/A system mounted for anti-narcotics operations.

This weapon is very powerful and can do a lot of damage if it’s operated by a professional that’s used to this kind of weapon.

While it would be a lot better if anyone would live in peace and there would be no need for guns, we don’t live in a perfect world and we need this kind of guns to protect ourselves and fight back if needed.

You can’t fight terrorism with flowers no matter how much you would like to do so, so such guns are momentarily necessary.

There has been a lot of technological progress in recent years in every domain and even in the military department and with this kind of equipment fewer people will have to lose their lives.
