The weight of the M2 .50 cal HMG is 81 Lbs.   100 rounds of ammo
(linked) weight is 30.25 lbs.	The weight of the aircraft (fighter)
.50 cal is just over 60 lbs.
     The water cooled version weight is 121.5 lbs (with water) 100.5
lbs (without water)  

I suspect the number of 145 lbs includes the tripod.
