To be honest we have no idea how minmatar build things. I mean what they still consider to be bottom of the heap trash pile of eve tech is still leagues beyond ours. The simple fact they're heafting this nearly fighter sized minigun around is rather scary.

I mean look at the V8 Kriss https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnKd6iXHTQg I mean the mere concept of how to do this didn't exist back then and this weapon's accuracy is highly reliant on the gun firing in the first place. I mean why didn't 1800's guns use this mechanism? Or 1600 hundreds bluss.

I mean why didn't 1800's guns use this mechanism? Or 1600 hundreds smoothbores? There is also smarter scopes coming out that correct their calculations between shots. While the gun itself is not getting more accurate the scope is. Finally; this is a video game and trying to balance based off reality is just silly and that itself is generally considered trolling which should be meet with just as much amount of trolling. Then change the description to... It's made out of dragon teeth ( they don't have mass, didn't you know that?)and shoots unicorn dicks while your at it. I was asking a simple question about the physics. Here's another question to have a dumb answer to... Why clones, when robots will be far superior to biological bodies ( in the future ) and if the technology to transfer consciousness is around how fast would drone robot control be. Btw the new scope won't fire the gun till your on target, exacto rounds are guided in flight, and even in the future mass will still have mass, that's what my question was about. To bad a cpm can't even understand it and goes straight to trolling.
or how about you can for once suspend the notion of belief and understand that eve tech is 50k years in the future and these guns are not built anything like the way you or I have been familiar with. I mean 500 years ago people never thought an auto loading cannon was feasible and today we got them semi-automatic and very unnatural to be muzzleloading such things. The lore provided makes more than perfect sense because if its a pressure based system then it would still make the HMG emp proof. Amarrians are known assholes in their subjugation methods and minmatar fighting needs evolved from such. I mean what if you precious phalanx no longer punched through any missile's armor (while unlikely anytime soon) but if the situation did occur the rules of war usually forces a change in tech to counter the newer threats. For example most phalanx cannons fire tungsten rounds, a metal we only have about 50 more years worth of left. What is going to be in store for the phalanx then? Early retirement? Round replacement like depleted uranium maybe? The mind boggles, what would guns look like 50, 100, 500 years from now?
For example your phalanx cannons are already given the 'out of date' status there is a highly known and predictable way to defeat them now and most militaries are aware of it, which is why they're now they're marrying the radar system to the evolved sea sparrow launcher instead of the tungsten based cannon system.
As for robots in eve? We already tried robots, they got too smart and consider us food and non-sentient even.
Wrong scope system; we're talking smart guns/scopes which is about 40x cheaper because it doesn't require special rounds or even a special 'gun' (the smart guns come with the system built into the stock but still much more relatively cheaper than any smart 'bullet') It makes a pretty accurate first guess and it autocorrects between firings. Doesn't turn anyone into a sniper instantly but it makes any marksman already much more deadlier.
