The Arms Manufacturing Company known as Oscorp, which has been secretly growing for the past few years, is at last ready to go Public with its first Line of Weaponry. The so called Vortelistics gun is still in development but hopefully will be out and released to the public soon.
What is Vortelistics? Dr. Ozzymandias Osborn, lead designer and CEO of Oscorp explains:

"Vortelistics is a new Anti-Personnel, Anti-Aircraft, and possibly with further development an Anti-Tank, Anti-Ship, and Anti-Missile weapon system. What sets this gun apart is that it creates a vortex of bullets which can mow down virtually anything in its way. The gun can be outfitted with explosive, armor piercing, toxic, Shotgun and concussive rounds among a myriad of other bullet types. It can be mounted or carried by personnel depending on what model is chosen. The Personnel used model is obviously smaller, but still packs a heavy enough punch to be feared by Enemy Infantry and Light Armored vehicles. It looks and functions somewhat like a gatling gun, however it has a far higher firing rate due to the fact that as the rotary is spinning, all of the barrels are still firing, rather than one at a time, thus creating a Ballistic Vortex, from where we get the name Vortelistics. This unique firing system creates a much deadlier speed and trajectory on the fired munition. Due to all the spinning and new trajectory the motion of the gun creates, it causes the munitions to tear through its target much more fiercely than conventional weaponry, thus making it an excellent multi-purpose weapon.
It could be mounted on larger ships to defend them from incoming missiles, mounted on tanks to mow through armor or buildings, several could be mounted on to a vehicle thus creating an Anti-Aircraft weapon. It can be used in just about every war front including mounting it onto aircraft. It is still in development and we are still working out the bugs. One thing people will have to realize is that this gun will not be meant for accuracy, but will annihilate the target nonetheless and with far more ferocity. It will shred the target to nothing, whether it be armor, buildings, or flesh; The Vortelistics program weapons will get the job done."


Today Oscorp has announced that its Vortelistics program is far ahead of schedule and that it will be on sale to the public in a matter of months.
The revolutionary new multi-role gun has apperantly been proved on the testing grounds and a source of ours within the company states that Oscorp will sell to specific nations first before allowing other nations to get in on the fun. However, Oscorp is releasing several specs on the various models of its new weapon.

The Neo Cannenite army is interested in your proposal. We request to know how much a shipment would cost to be fitted to several tanks and aircraft. Specificly 250 tanks and 150 harriers

OOC: Wouldnt the recoil from that kill the guy holding it? And isnt this just a normal CIWS gun? It has a similar (indeed somewhat lower) rate of fire.
