google chain cannon.

There are some very good wmv files of a chain cannon used on insurgents
placing an IED. Range, 4,000 yards. 30mm chain cannon recoil ............
9,000# sending out an explosive projectile at up to 300 rounds per minute.

Entertaining.

That's not a continuous rating though... I doubt that it could even
fire for full minute before falling apart due to overheating...

Whatever it does, I wouldn't want it pointed in my direction.

I was just quoting from the stat sheet.
