The Scimitar mounts an autocannon and a pair of SRM launchers.  The autocannon gives it the same range as the [[Saracen]], yet can be used at a closer range than the LRMs of the former machine.  Splitting the SRMs into multiple launchers allowed the Scimitar crew to target multiple foes, as well as maintain some weapons capability when one launcher is damaged or jams. All of the weapons are mounted in a turret.<ref name=TROR40 />

The [[Armstrong J11]] Autocannon/5 is an often used design. Mounted on such classics as the ''[[Clint]]'', the Scarborough engineers knew the weapon was already battle tested and would prove a reliable main cannon for their Scimitar.<ref name=TROR40 /><ref name=TROR41 /><ref name=TRO51 />
