Yes, and it fires depleted uranium tank killer bullets

The gun came first then they built the A10 "Warthog" around the gun.

From the Air Force's web site:

The Thunderbolt II's 30mm GAU-8/A Gatling gun can fire 3,900 rounds a minute and can defeat an array of ground targets to include tanks.

I walked up to one on the flight line when I first encountered it at Peterson AFB. Probably 1977. I put my finger in one of the gun barrels. The rifling felt as sharp as a ginsu knife!
