Interesting. 50,000 rpm even though it doesn’t look like anytthing is rotating.

the number of plan view curved bridges is minuscule compared to the number of long valley or river crossing straight bridges.

Nothing rotates—the barrels are “stacked” with rounds that are sequentially initiated similar to mag-lev propulsion. Literally creates a wall of steel.

If they don’t have 50,000 rounds in the thing, they need to use a different rate unit, like rps.
