A rapid fire weapon that is especially devastating to missiles and fighters at point-blank range. Accuracy degrades sharply during prolonged bursts.
An advanced timing mechanism beats in the heart of this multi-barrel weapon platform, generally manufactured only by licensed Hegemony Autofactories. Rounds typically use depleted uranium tips and are non explosive. Multiple barrels enable an extremely high rate of fire, which comes at a cost in flux.
–In-Game Description
The Vulcan Cannon is a small ballistic PD weapon with fragmentation damage.
Notes
With the damage increase and flux reduction in 0.6a, the Vulcan Cannon is a capable and affordable point defense weapon. It also makes an incredibly deadly knife weapon against ships with exposed hull.
