The GAU-5630 is the first liquid(propylene glycol based coolant) cooled chaingun to be produced by Phoenix Dynamix in 30mm caliber and the barrel(which is available in different lengths) will last for over 10,000 repeated shots. It can be installed in foward positions of aircraft on the lower centerline (which allows the 200mm telescopic zoom gun-sight to have the best view of the target) or upper to mid centerline of the fuselage. It can also be mounted on the right side of an aircraft or upside down on the left. The GAU-5630 can also be installed in under a helicopter's nose or in ground vehicles, even on board naval ships, however it is recommended that it only be placed in forward firing fixed installations.
