Description: The Requiem mobile gun acts both as an anti-air emplacement and an anti-tank emplacement. The GBW-10 is The Primeval’s answer to anti-air solutions in land-combat; although this juggernaut is incredibly slow it’s designed to be deployed from the upper atmosphere in an airdrop fashion as squadrons of two of these craft. The Requiem’s fearsome design gives it two powerful proton cannons and missile launchers but due to a limited reactor size the deflector shields are subpar at best.
The Requiem’s targeting computer utilizes sensory and tracking data similar to that in starship automation and gives it estimations as to where the target craft will be before firing, increasing the long-ranged accuracy of the gun.
