Description

Shivan anti-capital ship beam weapon mounted on SJ Sathanas. Actually called the BFRed (believed to mean Big F***ing Red) in tables.

Veteran Comments

This is the undisputed king of all beam cannons in Freespace 2, beating out the MjolnirBeam and BFGreen. Four of these cannons easily destroy a GTD Hecate in a single shot (Bearbaiting).

Really fun to play with when using cheats. If you force both primaries to this, you can take down an SJ Sathanas in a couple of shots.
