Metal Storm

[MrFachento]

Firing a decent .308 round at max speed would be $642,140.00 a minute, just for the ammo. If it's .50 cal: $2,450,000.00 a minute at *least*. Sneeze while at the trigger, and you're bankrupt.

[fnfdmgjfndf]

Not enough dakka.

[Gigaspine7]

A million rounds per minute is essentially a fucking shotgun.

[Baleur]

Imagine this, no, imagine 20 of these, mounted as stationary turrets on a helicopter or spaceship, launching 1 million grenades per second.

Future warfare will be ridiculous.. And ammunition manufacturers will laugh their way to the bank. (or at least more so than they already do)

[ostkreutzer]

Dodge this



[haissemweneht]

Its us vs them! Who in their right mind would ever use this on another is a going to Hell

[SierraSurfer1979]

What Is the intended use of such a device? It looks quite Unlikely that it was desgned for human hands

[xXPOKOCKXx]

I never will reload a weapon like this

[snypa514]

Hiding behind a brick wall will do you no good, Mr terrorist. This thing will just drill through the clay!

[xhunterxwolfx]

Imagine what that could do to somebody. Can the enemy look at their fallen comrades and say... salsa?

[bpr97050]

@goofygoobersrock 9mm

[goofygoobersrock]

what cartridge does it use?

[Ravengaurd6]

needs more DAKKA!

[ivanough]

Impressive

[MrTheIMOKO]

wtf! 1,000,000 round per minute! there is no way that can be right!!

[MrDip02]

@MrTheIMOKO it's possible but there would have to be like 100,000 barrels and ALOT of electricity

[SuttonBluenose2]

[AussieLAFO]

Just think of the possibilities of these designs !

Metal storm : Courtesy Of Australia :)

[avran89]

@AussieLAFO I have to tip my hat to the Aussies on this, I can imagine having these on helicopters, recon vehicles, APCs, maybe tanks, naval ships, and aircraft too

[AussieLAFO]

@avran89 all of the above my friend , and more :)

[slayer1234567890ful]

what caliber? oh wait it DON"T MATTER!!!

[UseAbuseReuse]

A warning siren will sound, then you go deaf.

[specops1218]

this is practically an extremely overpowered shotgun, except the bullets dont spread

[MsSloppyseconds]

@specops1218 Except a shotgun will tickle and this thing will cut your body into tiny little pieces.

[rustybutthole1]

Easy, I can dodge that.

[ismashudie]

oh god... were fucked

[skullenbonez]

How can someone dislike it's not like it's criticizing anything

[slamdunk2296]

@jbtkiller3000

because it is firing so fast that you cant here the difference between the time that the bullets are shot...1 million rounds per minute is fast

[pdxeddie1111]

this actually could replace du shells for armored target, I think big reason this company hasnt really gone anywhere is because its way ahead of it's time

[JBTKiller3000]

the one at 0:50 just sounds like a musket, not a rapid fire weapon!! why?

[HARBOOV]

CHUCK NORRIS

[Cacowninja]

Why wasn't this in CoD:MW3?

[KingmanIII]

one of these mounted on an Apache would take out Texas' feral hog population in about 3 weeks

[AQWdrounder1998]

DEAR SANTA..

[ahnhenden]

FUCKEN 'STRAYA CUNT!

[METALFOREVER270]

that thing is fucking awesome

[JeffersonGoldwater]

Be somewhere else.

[ScubaLumberjack]

So... Who else wants to get an array of these and fire them off at various fire rates and make a song out of it?

[Sablestone]

@ScubaLumberjack "Mary had a little lamb", of course, that's past tense since the lamb in question got in front of one of the guns and tuned into a fluffy pink cloud...

But yay for science and music!

[YesMan014]

Dear Santa....

[jasonfriedman1]

I don't think it will blend.

[SimbaOS]

Stupid

[malcolmccairns]

what would be the point of this? it probably wouldnt penetrate a tank and its more then enough to kill a group of ppl? this is over kill at its best. it could do the same job with half this power, bullets etc

[ChocoboXii00]

@malcolmccairns it's meant to shoot missiles before they blow your face.

[daspoooop]

@malcolmccairns remotely controlled death machine, no chance of casualties as the controllers are safe in a bunker, upscale it (bigger pipes) and it is effective anti air, put it on a boat and it would destroy a ship in 1 second.. put it on a plane and it could annihlate pretty much anything near instantly, replace it with grenades and you have a 3 shot grenage launcher attached to your weapon, make it the size of a pistol and you have a pistol with serious stopping power.. use ur imagination..

[blazikenking]

It costs $400,000 to fire this weapon for 12 seconds

[DocWilyZ]

@blazikenking Some people think they can outsmart me...maybe, maybe. But I have yet to meet one who can outsmart million bullets!

[kubste]

i want to stand there

[EdgarE5S]

Where can i get one of these for 10 bucks?

[filfoman]

@EdgarE5S walmart

[Alucard54s]

Still needs more dakka.

[bobcatmustard]

Come at me bro

[nicktheman999]

I am Heavy Weapons Guy.

And this is my weapon.

It weighs 150 kilograms.

And fire two hundred dollar custom tooled cartridges at 10,000 rounds a minute.

It costs 400,000 dollars to fire this weapon for 12 seconds.

[jgimben1260]

@nicktheman999 thats good I remember that but this one is better!!!

[jaferhassan]

this trailer prob cost like 20k O_o

[Jyrki1964]

Do you what CIWS is?

[Jyrki1964]

This is a real gun.

This could never have operational value, because we have a laser gun already.

Hush hush... can't tell anyone....

[Baleur]

@Jyrki1964 It has financial value though, the ammo manufacturers would laugh their way to the bank! And the only people crying their way to the bank would be the tax payers as usual.

But yeah, ammo based weapons must end at some point, with more and more energy being available in smaller and smaller packets, it makes more sense to move towards no-ammo weaponry.

[ramprire]

hahaha sounds like a gun fart

[Jyrki1964]

Aussies do the job :D

[kevista117]

See America. You guys aren't the only ones with the cool toys.

most sound like a fart

[soonersowntexas1]

They need to put this In call if duty :)

[sonnytenedo]

Is this already planned to be... oh I dont know mounting it on a humvee and having its own name like the humvee avenger? :D

[lmfao6956]

shit firin so fast it makes a buzzin sound O_o

[Jlowe541]

what do you mean you cant see the application of this tech? I can think of many applications from area denial to missile defense at short range, not to mention antiaircraft applications.

[FoolFosten]

If you fill one of these with 6mm BB's, it'd be still enough to kill someone!

[munapaska]

heavy is gonna love this

[luisloko33]

i want see this in the "time warp" tv series...

[stathamajf]

You know...I'm trying to see this as more then a d*ck-waving marketing ploy piece of nonsense...but I cannot think of a single practical application for the 'metal storm' 'technology' ie tying lots of guns together, that other things don't already do better and cheaper.

[CrocodilusPontifex]

Thumbs up if the Axis of Time Trilogy brought you here

[hockyjocky4]

Hey, I have a great idea, attach these to a robot and u have the ED-209 from the movie robocop! (ok, that's a real bad idea)...

[Zappina]

Now i just need to reload.....one moment...this will only take a minute....

Not enuff Dakka

[kioftor]

Chuck Norris 's firing pistol speed.

[baseballman0876]

wonder if that thing comes in 50 cal...a man can only dream

[Dragon555]

Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe, *sniff* maybe. I've yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet.

[MASDERCHEEFOrigin]

Why would we need a gun that fires a million rounds per minute? for the Zombies, of course!

[southaussie5108]

Does father Christmas deliver with instructions and infinity rounds .... I want one!!!

[BrunoRaven]

0:39 Sounds like a fart. 

[ceamorecash]

@BrunoRaven who farts like that?

[IamTeHe]

Rate of fire- $1,000 usd per second

[bruiza316]

what happened did chuck norris fart

[sindri262]

Needs moar dakka. Dose boards is stil standin.

[dzepper72]

great, all they need now is to create a way for soldiers to carry around millions of rounds of ammo

[wilson2185]

Mike O'Dwyer. Metal Storm represents both the name of the company and the technology. The company maintains a subsidiary in Arlington, Virginia, U.S.A.

[360Nomad]

Stick a person in front of it!!!

[anthony9thompson]

I think the siren would give the enemy time to take cover

[Jyrki1964]

Aussies are europeans. Like americans. They can invent a gun like this one.

Go aussies. In 70's Jali Timari of Finland invented an assault rifle that compensated the recoil so that the gun could be made much shorter and still be accurate. It was called Jatimatic. The gun was stolen and became a huge success around the world.

[MrMovie951]

On future weapons they don;t say that it was made by the aussies because they are to arogant to admit it.

[dcmaclovin12]

i just came in my pants and being a scout this weapon would be a blessing now all they need is to put it into assault weapon for and feild it

[sweetypie000]

the saddest part of this video is the fact that weapons manufacturers make them for profit and not solely for homeland security. selling this kind of advanced weapon to the 'enemy' is nothing short of advancing warfare purely for money.

Imagine how peacefult the world would be if the people that devised the ultimate weapons didn't sell them to countrys we could go to war with

weapons designers = bringers of death

weapon sellers = scumbags

[Heatgenblem11]

I told ya, don't touch that darn thing!

[Elthenar]

You know, you CAN reload these things. They replace the entire barrel with a preloaded one. A trained crew could reload this thing in a minute or two I'd wager.

[Ultralism]

In the future they'll have teleportation chambers in these things feeding them ammo, so they can actually keep on firing at 1M rpm.

[wrekless85]

@CF4LIf3 obviously u dnt knw how usefull it really is when in combat. U should watch futureweapons show abhout it! it wasnt made jus for looks!!

[CF4LIf3]

@wrekless85 The guy from future weapons is a tool. "Look at this blade of grass, my voice makes it epic."

[stefanel1996]

0:50 yep thats how it sounds when i fart =))

[whatsagoodusername23]

'a warning siren will sound, then you are fucked'

@whatsagoodusername23

I guess Bin Laden didn't hear any sounds, when he was fucked.

[backbeat910]

大砲でいいんじゃねーか？？

[maxrozing]

am i the only one who think that the shots sound like farts?

[zvermilion]

lmfao @ the 1M rpm, sounds like a single shot, that rpm is... well its completely unneccessary, if you aim, you don't need to fire that much, and you don't need a very powerful round either, hence excessively large explosive devices died out, you just need to hit the right spot. And no, that is not what she said.

[MrMcVilla]

if only they put this gun in mw2 :)

[kheko131993]

Still not enuff dakka

Designed and built in Australia! They test all their gear at Tin Can Bay defense site.

[AntHraXUltran00blet]

New target : Pig corpse

[Cacowninja]

Man this gun puts machine guns and gattling guns to SHAME!!!! I wonder if there's a hand held version without the tripod. (Not the 3GL.)

[ThoughtsNKaos]

i dont think reloading it is a big deal, originally it was designed so that you just swapped out the barrels..the barrels are kinda like roman candles.

I was really expecting this technology to take off, even bought some stock in the company..LOL.. but hasnt happened yet.

If hooked up to the right targetting equipment a weapon like this would be the ultimate in anti missle defense for ships.

[ZnN321]

Dear Santa...

[dimdum14]

second and third sound like farts...

[ZnN321]

@dimdum14 You've got some weird-ass farts... :D

[throwbaiis]

I love how it almost falls over even though it's bolted down LOL

[awesomeawesome888]

The gun fires 1million bullets a minute thats

16666 bullets a second or 166 bullets a miler second!!

[WeHaveABlackhawkDown]

it is just firing all at once :D

[uzickimajmunac]

:0

[CF4LIf3]

@edwinshap slid into each barrel?

[hotelmario510]

0:26

Holy shit, the thing can just fart you to death.

[shudador]

how do they fit a million bullets in that thing? they must be tiny, like a giant shotgun really...

[PivotXL1]

@shudador That is estimated firing speed on how fast they shoot the bullets they can fit in there. They don't really hold 1 million bullets.

[shudador]

@PivotXL1 yeah, which is why rate of fire doesn't really apply, a shotgun can fire 10 projectiles in .01 seconds, giving it a rate of fire of 60,000 rpm...oh no, wait....

[PivotXL1]

@shudador Well, seeing as this gun fires single bullets and can waste the 25,000 bullets it holds in 2 seconds 1 million is a good estimate (besides most of the small fragments of the shotgun are not as big as a full bullet).

[shudador]

@PivotXL1 you've missed the point, rate of fire is redundant if you cannot reload, besides 12 gauge pellets are about 8mm, so yes they are comparable.

[PivotXL1]

@shudador They are just giving you a rate per minute as all weapons do. An Uzi is said to do 900 bullets per minute but it doesn't hold 900 bullets does it?

[boostlavas55]

"It cost $400,00 to fire this weapon...

for one second"

[11ben100]

it sounds like a big big fart from...

[dh4645]

we need slower slow mo

[avatarsisters]

I want one

[WizenedWarrior]

awesome, the missing weapon for my zombie contingency plans

[LordnotsirTav]

@WizenedWarrior You don't want high rpm, you want something slow and accurate. You just need to destroy the brain. If you try using suppressing fire on zombies, it won't do a thing, you'll just get attacked by zombies with lots of bullet wounds.

[kasuke1]

@LordnotsirTav or just use bigger bullets, it can't bite you if its in 20 pieces and you avoid the bitey one/ones

[SuperSmashyfication]

Surely there's nothing you need that kind of firepower for? Miniguns are enough!

[spicychoccookies]

DANGER KEEP CLEAR

well no shit.

[Grannyhatesyourvid]

No wonder USA spend 753 billions a year if they have to refill this weapon...

[paulalex19]

@Grannyhatesyourvid It's actually Australian right now.

[nus]

Just get a, Goalkeeper :p

[grekel62]

its chuck norris's penis

[ragnaroksbringer]

Needs more dakka.

[crayonstochaos]

@ragnaroksbringer my fucking hero

[CarlosJoseMunez88]

@ragnaroksbringer I'm sorry to say, but a MILLION rounds a minute is as much dakka as anyone can get these days.

[ragnaroksbringer]

@CarlosJoseMunez88 I don't think you understand. To have enough dakka would be just below having too much dakka, and you can't have too much dakka, therefore you can't have enough dakka. Because then there would be too much dakka. Except there's no such thing as too much dakka.

Ya grot?

[CarlosJoseMunez88]

@ragnaroksbringer Oh... I wasn't aware that it worked that way, really. My apologies. ^^;

[CarlosJoseMunez88]

@ragnaroksbringer Oh... my bad. ^^;

[Cacowninja]

@ragnaroksbringer What does Dakka mean?

[ragnaroksbringer]

@Cacowninja "Dakka": Ork slang for rapid fire capability, based on the onomatopoeia for automatic guns shooting. You need moar of it. No exceptions.

[KamikazeeWatermelon6]

@ragnaroksbringer Never enuff dakka.
