Standard enough Shivan beam cannon, roughly equivalent to the BGreen or BVas, but does more sustained damage / second. Mounted on the SC Lilith making it into kind of a monitor (see Wikipedia: Monitor) as well as the destroyers SD Demon and SD Ravana.


The LRed actually does more damage per minute than the BFGreen or LRBGreen, according to the Beam Reference, and only slightly less damage per minute than the MjolnirBeam due to its long firing time and short recharge rate. If not for the random turret re-fire delay, this beam can actually fire again as soon as its life expires.
