The Mekhu HL-7 is the Vasudan re-engineered variant of the Subach HL-7 xaser. Modifications made to the design by engineers at Mekhu give it a higher firing rate and longer range than the original Terran version. These improvements come at the cost of a slight decrease in power output. This trade-off fits well with Vasudan military tactics, but most Terran pilots prefer the performance of the original weapon. | The Mekhu HL-7 is the Vasudan re-engineered variant of the Subach HL-7 xaser.

The Vasudan variant of the GTW Subach HL-7, the GTW Mekhu HL-7 is a slightly superior weapon. It boasts a higher rate of fire, better range, and a fraction more damage. Like the Subach, the Mekhu HL-7 consumes very little power and gives an acceptable level of damage, making it a viable choice throughout your tour of duty. The Mekhu HL-7 can only be mounted on Vasudan fighters and bombers.

The Mekhu HL-7 is the Vasudan re-engineered variant of the Subach HL-7 xaser. Modifications made to the design by engineers at Mekhu give it a higher firing rate and longer range than the original Terran version. These improvements come at the cost of a slight decrease in power output. This trade-off fits well with Vasudan military tactics, but most Terran pilots prefer the performance of the original weapon.
Veteran Comments
The Mekhu is used in place of the GTW Subach HL-7 in Vasudan fighters. The Mekhu has a huge fire rate - same as the GTW Morning Star, moves faster than the GTW Subach HL-7, does (slightly) more damage-per-second but has less overall hitting power (per shot damage), and is less efficent. I personaly prefer the GTW Subach HL-7 to this weapon, but it is quite effective. For more details on exact specifications see Weapon Comparison (FS2).
