- The M61 Vulcan is a hydraulically, electrically, or pneumatically driven, six-barrel, air-cooled, electrically fired Gatling-style rotary cannon which fires 20 mm × 102 mm (0.787 in × 4.016 in) rounds at an extremely high rate (typically 6,000 rounds per minute). The M61 and its derivatives have been the principal cannon armament of United States military fixed-wing aircraft for over sixty years.[2]

3 OEM 20mm Dummy Rounds with 3 OEM Links. Used by M61 Vulcan on the F-15, F-16, F/A-18, and AH-1 20mm x 102 PGU GU-30A/B TP-T The 20mm x 102 PGU Suite has an optimized aero ballistic shape that reduces time-of-flight and increased velocity at range for increased probability of hit. The PGU-28A/B Semi Armor Piercing High Explosive Incendiary (SAPHEI), qualified as M70LD in Europe, provides broad target spectrum capability by combining light armor and high explosive features into a single round. The PGU-28A/B utilizes basic multipurpose technology with enhanced and optimized ballistics to offer substantial improvements in effectiveness over the 20mm M50 series ammunition. Optimum projectile design for enhanced performance and increased lethality on target The PGU-27A/B TP and PGU-30A/B TP-T are cost-effective training rounds ballistically matched to the PGU-28A/B. The family is fully interoperable with all 20mm x 102 gun systems and support/handling equipment including the M61, M197 and XM301 and is type-classified and fielded in the F-15, F-16, F/A-18, and AH-1. Advantages The improved A/B version incorporates features that reduce the overall operating pressure and increases the reliability of the gun system Low drag, short time-of-flight Increased velocity and kinetic energy on target Delay function combined with larger, more lethal fragments Demonstrated reliability of function at range Improved effectiveness offered at a price comparable to the M50 series Provides broad target spectrum capability by combining light armor and high explosive.
