XX-8 turbolaser

The XX-8 turbolaser was a shipboard emplacement weapon produced by Taim & Bak. It was the predecessor of the XX-9 heavy turbolaser.

The XX-8 was similar in design to its sucessor, though this earlier model featured a taller tower that held both the turbolaser's main turbine and gunnery crew stations. The XX-9's turbine and crew stations were located within the vessel, not the weapon itself.
