Based on the [[Redeemer]] heavy cannon, this smaller caliber cannon fires ultra-dense projectiles with penetration power unparalleled among conventional fighter-mounted primary weapons. A single round packs a punch, but slow rate of fire is unlikely to make this weapon popular among pilots. It is currently being field-tested by a selected few squadrons.
