M61 Vulcan: The Gun That Can Fire 6,000 Round Per Minute The Vulcan first saw use in April 1965 in Vietnam when it was employed on an F-105 Thunderchief, and has been used with the Air Force s F-15, F-16, and F-22, and the Navy s F-14 and F/A-18. It has also been fitted in side-firing installations on the Fairchild AC-11 as well as the Lockheed AC-130 gunships. Just before the outbreak of the American Civil War, inventor Richard Jordan Gatling designed the world s first successful rapid-fire weapon. Technically not a machine gun in the modern sense, it was spring-loaded and hand-cranked. The forerunner to the weapons that were to come, the Gatling gun s operation centered on a cyclic multi-barrel design that allowed for its rapid-fire, but also facilitated cooling of the barrels.
