Produced by Hughes Aircraft Company

The Hughes EX-17 "Heligun" is a double-barrel 7.62 mm calibre machine gun. The weapon used a gas-operated revolver cannon loading system that produced firing rates around 6,000 RPM, double that of the M134 Minigun, while also lighter and more compact. It was developed by Hughes Aircraft for use in the OH-6 recon helicopter, but not put into production.
