The M8C Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Cannon (M8C G/GNC), sometimes shortened as the M8C nonlinear cannon,[2] and also known as the M8C Laser Cannon,[3] is a nose-mounted heavy laser cannon that is equipped on the G79H-TC Pelican gunship.[4] Given its name and its operation, it likely shares technology with the M6 Spartan Laser.
