The GTSG Mjolnir


The GTSG Mjolnir Remote Beam Cannon was a sentry gun armed with a special kind of beam weapon. Mjolnirs were designed to guard jump nodes from hostile warship entries.

Description:

FS2 Tech Room Description

The GTSG Mjolnir is the most advanced sentry gun device known. Vastly tougher and deadlier than the earlier Watchdog, Cerberus, and Alastor models, the Mjolnir is a danger to any hostile fighter or bomber that comes within range. Its two beam weapons and three missile banks enable it to take on multiple enemies simultaneously. Mjolnirs are also referred to as RBCs (remote beam cannons). They are used to help protect the most vital front-line Alliance installations.

Veteran Comments

The Mjolnir mounts only one weapon, despite the tech description. That weapon is the single most deadly GTVA beam cannon you're ever going to find, however. Mjolnirs are very nice things to have on a blockade, but desperately vunerable to fighter and bomber attack.

I think you only encounter them in one mission (the one where you have to destroy most of the rebel fleet) but they are excellent. As with the above, you have to protect them as they have no anti-fighter armament and really go down fast despite the 2.5-4.5k HP for a sentry.
