Production overview

Type:

Laser[1]

 

The Brightlance compound reflex laser[2] is a laser-based directed energy weapon employed as the primary armament of the Mulsanne-class light frigate. One such weapon was employed by UNSC Panama against the CAS-class assault carrier Purveyor of Virtue, to little effect.[1]

Trivia

The weapon's name can be a reference to the Warhammer 40000 franchise, where the Eldar race's anti-tank laser is called "Bright Lance".

The weapon's type may also be a reference to the Robotech franchise's Reflex Weaponry, including the "Reflex Cannon" and "Reflex Warheads." Fittingly, both systems were also reverse-engineered from alien technology acquired by humans.
