The M-134D and M-134DT fires 50 rounds every second, or about 3,000 rounds per minute. Meaning the six barrels rotate up to 1112 RPM in half a second.
Yes. The M134 'Minigun' is designed for military applications.
I assume you mean the M134 Minigun - but the term is also used with other powered Gatling Guns. The M134 has a selectable rate of fire from 2,000 to 6,000 rounds per minute.
You're probably thinking of the M134 'Minigun', which is capable of firing at a rate of 6000 rounds per minute.
The M134 Minigun can fire anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 rounds per minute. It is a six-barreled machine gun which uses the Gatling-gun style of shooting.

Originally, General Electric. Dillon Aero owns the patents to the upgraded M134D model.
The rate of fire on an MG42 varied depending on what bolt was used, but optimal settings allowed for 1,500 rounds per minute. The M134 (otherwise known as a "minigun") fires at between 2,000-6,000 rounds per minute. So, to answer your question, the minigun fires much faster than the MG42, even with ideal configuration. Note: Keep in mind, however, that the MG42 did use a slightly larger round (7.92mm, as opposed to the miniguns' 7.62mm).
There is a broad range of ROF (Rate of Fire). It can be anywhere from a crazy slow 3 rounds per second (some off-brand guns) all the way up to 100 rounds per second (Echo 1 M134). These are the ends of the scale, while most guns fire 10-20 rounds per second on fully automatic.
A minigun typically fires at a rate of around 2,000 to 6,000 rounds per minute, depending on the specific model and configuration. This high rate of fire is achieved through the use of multiple rotating barrels and an electric motor to cycle the ammunition. The minigun's rapid-fire capability makes it a formidable weapon in combat situations.
The Dillon Aero M134 Gatling gun fires either 2000 or 4000 rounds per minute, it is selectable.

Most are not - however, there are some which are electrically operated, the most famous of these being the General Electric M134/Dillon Aero M134D "Minigun". Chain guns are also operated by an electric motor operating the mechanism.
