Description
Introduced in 2595 by the Terran Hegemony. The LB 10-X Autocannon is essentially a 'Mech-mounted shotgun, capable of firing special "cluster rounds" that split apart after being fired, allowing the weapon to either spread damage out or focus damage on a small area, depending on the range. LB-X Autocannons are able to use either the special cluster rounds or standard autocannon rounds. The LB 10-X Autocannon, having a higher caliber, causes higher damage than lower-caliber autocannons, though it is limited to medium ranges.[6][7][8]
Models
The LB 10-X AC is manufactured on the following planets:
Variants
- LB-X-P
- The Federated Commonwealth employed an experimental version of the UAC-5 during the War of 3039, giving it to certain elite units for field testing. While similar to standard models, these prototypes required an additional critical slot, were slightly less accurate, and could jam in certain cases.[11]
