The DF.9 turret placement, also known as the DF.9 Anti-Infantry Battery,[6] the DF9 Turret, or simply the DF.9 was a model of stationary anti-infantry laser cannon emplacement manufactured by Golan Arms.
Description
Manufactured by Golan Arms, the DF.9's single laser canon was capable of firing blasts capable of annihilating whole squads of approaching infantry. Effective at a distance of up to 16 kilometers, the gunner in the upper turret enjoyed a rapid firing rate with a full 360° firing arc.[2] The durasteel protected turret could easily withstand blaster fire, all while a targeting computer technician assisted with precision aim and another ensured stable energy flow from the power generator.[1]
