In the annals of military ingenuity, one name stands synonymous with devastating power and innovation: the Gatling-style rotary cannon.

The cyclic multi-barrel design synchronizes the firing sequence. Each barrel fires a single cartridge when it reaches a certain position in the rotation, after which the spent casing is ejected at a different position and then a new round is loaded at another position. During the cycle, the barrel has more time to dissipate some heat away to the surrounding air.

Here, I present a formidable lineup of seven Gatling-style rotary cannons, proudly serving within the ranks of the United States military.
