Guns firing the M134

The M134 is a machine gun type weapon introduced in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon. In the campaign of the game, it is the main weapon of the MH-60 Black Hawk gunship, and is used by Nomad 61's gunner, Guns in the missions "Shockwave" and "Lock and Load".

As a usable weapon, the M134 features a rate of fire equal to that of larger machine guns. It has fairly good accuracy, which can be offset by the helicopter's movement. As well, the user can zoom in by pressing either aiming stick to aid in long-range firing.

The M134 has a relatively good damage output, killing infantrymen in a single shot and destroying light vehicles such as technicals and boats with a brief burst. However, because of its light caliber, greater amounts of damage are required against larger vehicles, namely Mi-24 Hind helicopters. Due to its brief appearances within the story, it cannot be enhanced with skills.
