The '''Heavy Mass Driver''' is the heaviest [[Mass Driver]], and was developed by the [[Word of Blake]]. It fires a slug the size of a [[:Category:90_ton_BattleMechs|90 ton Assault 'Mech]] at its target. Due to the sheer size of the weapon, it can only be mounted in a [[WarShip]] or [[Space Station]] that masses at least 2,000,000 tons. This means only [[WarShip#WarShip_Categories|Battleships]] and [[Space Stations]] could mount the Heavy Mass Driver. In addition, only one Mass Driver could be mounted on a WarShip.<ref name="TOp323"/>
