Challenge - Orbital Cannon

Challenge - Orbital Cannon

I have a "Orbital Cannon" frame capable of having at max 40 static artillery (41 if no center camera) or 24 static railguns in its barrel. The aim of this challenge is to see how the SE community can modify the base model of the cannon into a functional weapon capable of striking down ships that get near bases (since we sadly can't shoot into orbit (darn it Keen but fair enough)). Any form of weapon is allowed, from artillery, railgun, to klang guns, go ham! Supergridding is allowed as well!

The Rotors are automatically locked so you will have to unlock them. It also comes with 3 scripts pre installed. Whip's MART, Whip's Subgrid Gyro Manager, and Whip's Subgrid Thruster Manager (this one is here to stop the barrel from moving jankly while trying to aim).

Assuming I can find the uploaded finished versions of this cannon, (please have Orbital Cannon in its workshop upload to make it easier to find) all variants I can find will be shown off on youtube.

Requirements:
Keep it vanilla
Use this frame
Everything can be modified to suit your needs (including making the cannon larger, the turret larger, etc) however the already installed rotors need to stay the same.

On Febuary 1st 2025 this challenge is over and the video will release the following Monday (2/3/2025) assuming something doesn't happen IRL that forces me to release it later.

This BP will stay up so people in the future can use it as a base for their own cannons :D
