It was fed by a 100 round pan magazine, and fired the British .303 Cartridge. The Vickers K light machine gun (known as the Vickers Gas Operated or Vickers G.O. in British service) was a rapid firing machine gun developed and manufactured for use in aircraft by Vickers-Armstrongs. The high rate of fire was needed for the small period of time when the gunner would be able to fire at an attacking aircraft. The weapon was also adopted for land use during World War II.
