Weaponry Experiment #8

Cruisers are a very important part of the fleet and sometimes require something else than the typical pulse/cerb/mortar/secondary configuration. With the increasing capabilities of enemies to dodge our fire, we have to resort to faster weapons with similar hull damaging performance.

For this purpose a cerberus cruiser turret was taken and upgraded with freely available materials at Malta. This step increased refire rate by 33% and according to measurements, lowered the life expectancy for the gun. This problem was alleviated by burning a new firmware with optimized procedures about the projectile creation. And with with knowledge obtained from Sledges, MOX was once again applied into the inner walls of the recombination room which caused a different resonance frequency and the characteristic Sledge visual traits.

To not make this weapon a copy of the cerberus, we made a certain modification to the inner deflectors to increase its speed by 100m/s. It should help greatly in combat and allow to take easier hits on enemies.
