DREAD, Silent Machine Gun
-
Imaging a gun with no recoil, no sound, no heat, no gunpowder, no visible firing signature (muzzle flash), and no stoppages or jams of any kind. Now imagine that this gun could fire .308 caliber and .50 caliber metal projectiles accurately at up to 8,000 fps (feet-per-second), featured an infinitely variable/programmable cyclic rate-of-fire (as high as 120,000 rounds-per-minute), and were capable of laying down a 360-degree field of fire.

I think this new weapon system is in the same league as Metalstorm.

The concept is like a coil-gun. However, it does not seem to have a good effect for armour piercing. A sphere of lead/copper/hard iron is useless against tough surfaces.
The stealth concept is good but without a mount that can match its capabilities {a jeep that produce no sound/no heat/movement etc }, it is still useless.
Metal storm is much better than this.
