Pacific Rim (2013).

The following weapons were used in the film Pacific Rim:

General Dynamics GAU-22/A

The Lockheed Martin F-35B jets in the film are erroneously outfitted with a pair of GAU-22/A 25mm guns (a four-barrel version of the older GAU-12/U) under the fuselage. This is an inaccuracy as the actual F-35B is only outfitted with a single external gunpod.
