Difference between pages "Hyper-Velocity AutoCannons" and "RFL"

Revision as of 15:17, 4 January 2020

Rear Firing Laser is an automated defense turret found on some heavier Aerospace fighters.

RFL primary purpose is to target and fire upon enemy ASFs and VTOLs that come within range of its beam, 500 meters, thus helping to free up the pilot of distraction while performing a bombing run or engaged in aerial combat. By their nature bombers are heaver, slower and less maneuverable in a dogfight when compared to all other aircraft.

-<p>HVACs improve upon ACs of the same caliber by offering longer range and a slightly higher bullet velocity, for example, the HVAC2 has a range of 1500m, compared to the AC2's range of 1200m. Only [[Inner Sphere]] units use the HVAC weapon system.</p>
-<p>HVACs currently come in the /2 and /10 calibers. There is no HVAC equivalent to the AC20 in MWLL, and HVAC5 hasn't yet appeared in game, due to it being allegedly redundant to the [[Light Gauss]] in role and performance.</p>

-===HVAC2===
-*Fires bursts of 12 projectiles dealing [[Damage Types| Light Kinetic damage]] offering bonus damage against against [[Vehicles]] and Air units
-*Extreme long range
-===HVAC10===
-*Fires single high explosive projectile causing intensive screenshake and splash damage
-==Canon==
-Hyper-Velocity Autocannons are ballistic weapons first developed by the Capellan Confederation in the 3050s based on standard Autocannons common to many Inner Sphere units. HVACs feature an extended range in comparison to standard ACs of the same calibre without sacrificing damage output. In order to carry the propellant necessary for the shells to travel so far, each HVAC round is larger than its equivalent AC counterpart, meaning that less ammo is carried per ton. This difference in the type of round required also means that HVACs are incompatible with the specialized munitions available to regular ACs such as precision or armor-piercing rounds.
