STRENGTHS
- Versatile: The Model 68 can be used as either a point defense turret on larger platforms, or the main armament on smaller vehicles.
- Targeting: With a high rate of fire and solid punch, as well as the capability to fire various types of ammunition, the launcher set is a very versatile weapon.
- Compatible: The turret is very easy to link up and connect with virtually any targeting and scanning system, whether it be manual or automatic. It can also be easily deployed as a gun emplacement.
- Mass Driver: Due to the usage of mass driver technology in each launcher, the weapon can fire unguided ammunition as well.
WEAKNESSES
- Recoil: The cannon generates a lot of recoil, potentially throwing off accuracy close to the end of its effective range
- Big: Due to the size, it might have compatibility issues with some vehicles.
- Overheat: Due to the high fire rate, the launchers could potentially overheat under constant fire.
- Ammunition: It is highly recommended to connect the turret to a ammunition loading system, due to its low magazine capacity.
DESCRIPTION
Just like its laser cannon counterpart, the Model 68 is a turret housing twin Model 66 ordinance launchers, with a higher firing rate than normal to allow for greater volume of fire. While sacrificing versatility for bigger ammunition, the turret can still fit into a surprising number of places. With a focus on assault and heavy firepower, it could also be used as a type of point defense for bigger targets, or to create a dead zone to intercept enemy ordinance.
