                        I have the Italeri 1:72 kit of the Chinook MH47 E SOA, and am wondering if anyone cn tell me the calibre of the miniguns on it.

                        Thanks,

                        Al

                        I am pretty certain they will be 7.62mm. I know the ones used on the RAF;s Chinooks are that calibre, I assume they are the same guns.

                        I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

                        Yes, the miniguns used in US helicopters are chambered for 7.62mm NATO.
