Nacl01> So,what 'zactly is the caliber of a chili-dog?


Dunno about that chili dog . . .
But the F-35 gun caliber is 25 mm.

>>>
F-35 Lightning II 25mm Gun System

http://www.gd-ots.com/armament_systems/ags_F-35.html

General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems has been awarded a system development and demonstration contract by Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company to design, produce and integrate the gun systems for the F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter.

GD-OTS is devel­oping the GAU-22/A for the internal and external gun systems based on a derivative of its GAU-12/U 25mm Gatling gun. An internally mounted gun system will arm the F-35A Conventional Takeoff and Landing aircraft variant and a removable or “missionized” externally mounted gun system will arm the F-35B Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing and F-35C Carrier-Based aircraft variants.
