-The '''Magnetic Accelerator Cannon''', also known as '''Mass Accelerator Cannon'''<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 119''</ref>, '''MAC Gun''' and '''MAC Cannon''', is a large [[Wikipedia:Coilgun|coilgun]] that serves as the primary offensive weapon for UNSC warships. Larger versions, nicknamed ''"Super"'' MACs or the ''"big stick"'', of these are used as orbital defense platforms. They are the only non-nuclear weapons in the UNSC arsenal capable of effectively reducing or destroying Covenant shields. Smaller shipborne versions can take as many as three hits to overload a shield while an orbital platform can put a hole through any Covenant vessel even with fully charged shields.
