- Multi-Missile Tracking System: Tracks fast-moving threats—fighters, missiles, drones—in real time
- Payload-Selectable Ammunition: Choose one round type per mission:
- Plasma-Filled: High stopping power with thermal effect
- Incendiary: Ideal for bombardment of flammable targets
- High-Explosive: For soft-skinned craft or boarding shuttles
- Electromagnetic: Disables small electronics and drone controls
- Solid Slug: Pure kinetic punch against structural targets
- Automated Burst & Cooldown Cycles: Fires in 3–5s bursts, with 5–7s cooldown, scaling up to long sessions as needed

- AI-enhanced effectiveness: Improves over time with each engagement
- Rotary volume fire: Effective vs. starfighter formations and boarding threats
- Rapid-fire bursts: Allows aggressive defense with controlled thermal signature
- Limited range: Not effective beyond short engagement distances
- Ammo lock: Cannot swap payload mid-combat
- Thermal management required: Sustained fire may lead to jams or disengagement
- Sensitive to EMP/ion strikes: Susceptible to system interruption
The Striker II Rotary Cannon is a reengineering of the Ruislip platform into a close-range multi-role melee cannon for the modern Commonwealth. It unleashes rapid 20 mm rotary fire, packed with intelligent targeting and heat-dissipating tech, ideal for harsh boarding scenarios or escort defense.
Whether mounted on quad-turret stations, shuttle gunpods, or boarding corvettes, Striker II can be loaded with plasma, incendiary, HE, EM, or solid rounds depending on mission needs. Its burst-and-cooldown design ensures manageable heat, and its heuristic AI makes every volley smarter than the last. This is your close-range "angel of wrath"—a hail of steel, fire, and electricity that arrives just before the boarding ramp.
