The Ke-V8-W3100 Turbo Aether Cannon is a burst fire weapon developed as the primary weapon for the Ke-V8 "Kawarime" Fighter it became available in YE 32.
The Ke-V8-W3100 is a refinement of the Ke-T8-W3100 Aether Beam. It only has a single pulse mode of operation which helped reduce the size of the weapon.
During the development of the Ke-V8 "Kawarime" Fighter, the question of a weapon system came up. A weapon with a shorter range, but faster rate of fire was deemed appropriate.
