Retractable [[120mm ventral gun]]s are fitted onto its ventral surface.

The text of ''[[Halo: First Strike]]'' mentions multiple 110mm heavy rotary cannons. ''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'' states the C709 is fitted with a single heavy rotary cannon. This article assumes the latter source to be being correct. | |||
