Explanation

Metal Storm is an Australian weapons system that uses electronically-primed stacked projectiles to achieve extremely high rates of fire, with demonstrated rates up to 1 million rounds per minute in 36-barrel prototypes. This far exceeds conventional machine guns like the M-16A1 (approximately 800 rounds/min), AK-47 (600 rounds/min), or SAW squad automatic weapons (approximately 1,000 rounds/min).
