The MPC-1 Eyayah Hyper Particle Cannon, know as the "Echo" to those who don't speak Mando'a, is a super massive cannon designed to be mounted to capital ships. This 200 meter, power hungry weapon was designed to be a spinal mounted weapon for a future CST cruiser, creating a weapon that would essentially be a space sniper rifle. Powerful, long range fire at the cost of a slow rate of fire, and an energy weapon that still has a massive recoil.
When fired, the Echo unleashes a pale yellow particle bolt at speeds much faster than a typical capital ship cannon. The bolt packs massive power, and explodes on impact. This bolt has been shown to do extensive damage to a target's armor and shields. The weapon does begin to loose out at close ranges though, it's slow reload meaning anything that equips it will generally remain at long ranges to make up for the lack of firing speed.
