The F-35 Lightning II is a single-seat, single-engine, stealth-capable military strike fighter, a multi-role aircraft that can perform close air support, tactical bombing, and air-to-air combat. The F-35 descended from the X-35 of the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program. Its development is being funded by the United States, the United Kingdom, and other partner governments. It is being designed and built by an aerospace industry team led by Lockheed Martin and major partners BAE Systems and Northrop Grumman. Demonstrator aircraft flew in 2000;[2] a production model first took flight on 15 December 2006.[3]

Actually, it's 5-barrelled, not 4. Note that you can see the five holes at the beginning of the gun in the ring. This reminds me of the A-10 gun test movies on this website. But, like the 30mm Avenger, the Equalizer is also a scaled-up M-61. The 25mm Equalizer is also being used as an anti-aircraft gun combined with 4 or more Stinger SAMs. It said in my favorite book that the answer to which gun will be fitted to the F-35 is the Mauser BK-27 27mm revolver cannon.
