Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.

Other than its trail I see no difference between this and the GTM Harbinger, probably just there to keep the player from noticing the Shivans are firing Harbingers.

Actually this is inferior to the Harbinger in shield and subsystem damage, but is otherwise the same.
