  • Guardian cannon (Tiberium Wars)
rdfs:comment
  • The Guardian cannon was armed with a powerful 105mm cannon protected by a forward-facing shield and mounted on a rotating platform capable of traversing the turret 360 degrees horizontally and 30 degrees vertically. The cannon itself fired large-caliber APDS rounds. It was effective against light to medium vehicles, but required support against infantry, aircraft, and heavier vehicles. However, the Railgun upgrade improved the Guardian cannon's damage significantly, allowing it to cope with heavy armor. The Battle Base also incorporated two Guardian cannons into its defenses.

  • The Guardian cannon was armed with a powerful 105mm cannon protected by a forward-facing shield and mounted on a rotating platform capable of traversing the turret 360 degrees horizontally and 30 degrees vertically. The cannon itself fired large-caliber APDS rounds. It was effective against light to medium vehicles, but required support against infantry, aircraft, and heavier vehicles. However, the Railgun upgrade improved the Guardian cannon's damage significantly, allowing it to cope with heavy armor. The Battle Base also incorporated two Guardian cannons into its defenses. They were first deployed by the GDI commander in the mission to take back the White House to defend his base from Nod vehicles. Four of these were also used to defend the GDI forward base in Croatia until the MCV reinforcement convoy arrived. By the time of the Fourth Tiberium War, Guardian Cannons had been relegated to GDI's Defense branch. However, it continues its purpose as an anti-tank turret.
