UH-1 (including all US variations) M16 subsystem consisting of four total M60C 7.62mm machine guns when mounted on both outer pylons. (vehicles this pertains to: UH-1D UH-1B, UH-1C, UH-1C (XM-30)) this setup was commonly used the same way the 7.62mm minigun mounts are used in game. It may seem redundant considering its a nearly identical setup but it would allow for slightly more efficient gun usage as the fire rate of the M60 is around 550-600 rpm while the m134 has a fire rate of around 6000 rpm (and just as a side note: RIDE OF THE VALKYRIES INTENSIFIES :) )(along that note I would like to add that this weapons setup is an iconic setup due to its depiction in the movie Apocalypse Now)
