The ADEN Mk 5 became the basis for the planned ADEN 25, which was to be a somewhat larger weapon at 90in (2.3m) long and weighing 203 pounds (92.1kg) firing the new range of 25x137mm NATO STANAG 4173 ammunition (as developed for M242 Bushmaster) at a much higher muzzle velocity of 3,445 feet per second (1,050m/s). The lighter ammunition was also to produce a higher rate of fire, 1,650 to 1,850 rounds per minute. mm GAU-8/A Ammunition" (PDF), Defense Systems, Orbital ATK, p.2, November 2002, archived (PDF) from the original on 2017-02-07 , retrieved 2016-05-18

Naturally I welcome the news that HMS Queen Elizabeth will receive her 30mm outfit before her first operational deployment later this year. Foss, Christopher F (17 March 2017).

An inch is the name of a unit of length in a number of different systems, including Imperial units, and United States customary units. There are 36 inches in a yard and 12 inches in a foot. The inch is usually the universal unit of measurement in the United States, and is widely used in the United Kingdom, and Canada, despite the introduction of metric to the latter two in the 1960s and 1970s, respectively. The inch is still commonly used informally, although somewhat less, in other Commonwealth nations such as Australia; an example being the long standing tradition of measuring the height of newborn children in inches rather than centimetres. The international inch is defined to be equal to 25.4 millimeters. PDF) https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADB028651.pdf.

In February 2015, Oshkosh Defense and ATK conducted a firing demonstration of the M230LF on an Oshkosh M-ATV MRAP to demonstrate the viability and effectiveness of a medium caliber weapon system for light tactical vehicles. The live fire demonstration showcased improved accuracy in mobile engagements and improved lethality on the M-ATV using the gun, mounted on the R400S-Mk2, a 3-axis stabilized remote weapon station weighing less than 400kg (880lb). The addition of the 72.6kg (160lb) M230LF stabilized on the RWS provides mobile precise lethality, usually reserved for heavier combat vehicles, with increased off-road mobility and MRAP levels of protection, [15] along with optional Stinger missiles. Oshkosh has also fitted the M230LF to the L-ATV to fulfil the U.S. Army's light reconnaissance vehicle (LRV) role. [16] In the world of ammunition, the 30mm and 50 caliber rounds have always been widely used for different purposes. While 30mm is mostly utilized in air-to-ground and air-to-air missions, the 50 caliber is known for its extensive use in ground-to-ground warfare. The linked rounds pass up from the pannier on the right through the flex chute to the receiver on the gun breech. The flexible chute allows the gun to elevate between -20º to +65º (HMS Sutherland, Oct 2011. Photo: Navy Lookout) a b c d e f "Northrop Grumman M230 30mm chain gun fact sheet" (PDF). 2018 .

However, production of the MK 213 never commenced due to development problems such as excessive barrel wear, not to mention the Allied Combined Bomber Offensive campaign against German industry. [7] At the end of the war only 5 prototypes (V1 to V5) of either 20 mm MG 213 or 30 mm MK 213 were finished. [7] A-10 warthog planes often use the gau-8 avenger 30mm weapon system, while sniper teams often use a 50 cal weapon. Armored vehicles, such as the stryker, can also be equipped with 30mm or 50 cal weapon systems for added protection.
