G30 Vulcan



The G30 Vulcan is a secondary weapon for the Prowler. It is undoubtedly the most powerful of the Prowler's secondary weapons, and possibly the most powerful secondary weapon of any faction's tank. The Vulcan is a high speed gatling gun which fires 30 rounds in about two seconds, meaning that it's fire rate is about 900 RPM. Each one of these two-second salvos deals about as much damage as an entire fifty round clip from an M20 Basilisk. At close range this damage output actually surpasses that of the tank's primary cannons. While the Vulcan is most useful against enemy armor, it can also disintegrate aircraft, provided they are low to the ground and close, as in a low-speed attack run. The Vulcan has the same maximum elevation as the Basilisk. The Vulcan will pulverize infantry provided the gunner has a clear shot. The Vulcan has a few weaknesses, but they are relatively minor. It is much less accurate than the Basilisk, and has much more bullet drop, making it much less effective beyond medium range. By default it's ammunition reserve is quite small, and anyone who buys one should make it a priority to certify greater ammo capacity. The G30 Vulcan costs 1000 certification points or 700 Station Cash.
