This actually is used several times in the Main FreeSpace Campaign, occasionally by Shivan forces so they can't really attack (Good Luck). It does moderately more shield damage than its Terran counterpart, but much less armor damage, also consider the fact that it only moves at 300 mps, to the ML-16's 450 mps, this slow speed makes it difficult to hit anything. The most directly similar weapon is the Training Laser, which is not fit to destroy anything besides cargo containers.
