So the concept started with the Gatling gun, the first rotating multi-barrel machine gun, and then was scaled up into the modern minigun. That was then scaled up to the 20mm Vulcan and 30mm Avenger autocannons.
Why can’t we scale it up even further with a multi-barrel rotating artillery cannon? One that shoots 3000 artillery rounds per minute and sends massive barrages of artillery?

I’ve been near artillery firing. The concussion from just one shot is insane. Plus you’d plow through an entire 5-ton truck full of ammo in several seconds.
What we do is have 18 cannons lined up and they keep firing.
