M-6E3 Weapons System

Closeup of the M-6E3 Weapons System mounted on the side of the Huey as seen in the film Starman.

An M-6E3 Weapons System mounted on a UH-1 "Huey" gunship in Apocalypse Now.

Crew doing final adjustments to the M-6E3 Weapons System in The Green Berets

M-6E3 Weapons System is an armament system for helicopters, which contains dual automated M60C machine guns remotely-controlled by the pilot. Note: It's really hard to find a photo of this system on the Internet apart from the screenshots, so that's why they were used.
