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?

one thing I dont see is that artillery does not use a cased bullet rather the charge and projectile are separate, you load the round and then the charge packs depending on how far you want to launch said round. could you even imagine the auto loader required to load 3000 arty rounds per minute?
