20mm M14A1 Disintegrating Metallic Link – Compatible with M61 Vulcan Gatling Gun

Enhance your collection of U.S. military ordnance accessories with the 20mm M14A1 Disintegrating Metallic Link, the standard linking component historically used to feed 20×102mm ammunition into the legendary M61 Vulcan Gatling Gun. Built to rigorous U.S. military specifications, the M14A1 link is a robust, parkerized steel link designed to withstand the extreme rotational speeds and high firing rates of the Vulcan platform.

Historical Significance

The M14A1 link was developed as part of the U.S. military’s move into next-generation aircraft weaponry during the Cold War. Paired with the M61 Vulcan, which entered service in the late 1950s, the link played an essential role in enabling the weapon’s remarkable reliability. The Vulcan became a cornerstone of American fighter aircraft—such as the F-104 Starfighter, F-105 Thunderchief, F-4 Phantom II, F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and others—making the M14A1 link a widely used component across decades of U.S. aviation history.

While the M61’s six-barrel electric Gatling system is famous for extremely high rates of fire, the M14A1 link was engineered to ensure consistent, smooth ammunition delivery during demanding conditions across multiple generations of aircraft and military environments.
