:I'm not sure. We hear about the ''Mantle's Approach'' being hit with MACs, and having no effect. Plus if this were a MAC, it would have caused far more damage than a tiny hole. An unshielded ship, no matter what it was made of, would have shattered, or at least have a tunnel plowed through it. Lasers, being light, can bypass shields yet have minimal effect on its hull. Plus, I listened through the whole first half of the level, and Lasky never calls them MACs. The closest he gets is saying "prepare firing solution", which suggests to me a solution that creates a chemical laser from a reaction. Note the solution used by [[Pulse laser turret#Firing operation|pulse laser turrets]]. Those four MACs you mention, I assume, are the ones we see on the side of the ship during the level [[Infinity (Halo 4 level)|Infinity]], which resemble the [[Mark 2488 Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|Onager]].

::"Firing solution" merely suggests trajectory between a ship's gun batteries and her target. {{User:Grizzlei/Sig}} | |||
