I don't think it can be. Part of the methodology for the gun firing at
such
a high rate is that it actually loads multiple rounds into the mechanism
at
once, which I would uess would be very tricky with a belt feed. Even if
doable I suspect it would be hard to maintain.
Actually, anyone who is seriously interested in this, the comp[any that
makes it has a web site. Dunno the address but you can get to it via the
report on the Tomorrow's World web site whihc is at www.bbc.co.uk/tw
