Riggatto:
I'd like to point something out.


This gear seems to be spun by the main propeller, and under it is an enclosed compartment. either that's what you're looking for or I have a serious lack of mechanical knowledge.



EDIT: After looking at this picture for a few minutes I see that it is actually not connected to the propeller at all. However, the gear is still significant (I would say).

Also, the Gatling gun.  It's not hand -cranked and it even makes an electric whine when fired. 

But there are guns that don't need external electric power, like flaks, Mercury, carronade, mortar, flare... A lot of light guns, in fact.  The Artemis and Banshee probably use magnetos.

What always bothered my is why it wouldn't be more efficient to use, say, a blowback machine gun given the technology we have available.

Anyways, I always assumed that the guns were mostly hydraulic with exemptions of things like the hwatcha or gatling where you can clearly hear servos whining. Not a particular fan of the sparking particle effect, but it works gameplay-wise.
