Note The Lipan Bara can be armed with an M134D-H 7.62 × 51 mm minigun mounted in a protected weapon station. The M134D-H differs from the standard M134D in that some of its components are titanium. The M134D-H Minigun is a remotely-powered, electrically-driven machine, the basic design of which remains based on the original, manually-operated Gatling gun principle in which a high rate of fire is achieved by having six rotating barrels that fire in turn when the one o'clock position is reached.
