Capacity

"Each barrel has a capacity of three rounds, making for a total of eighteen shots." Do we have a source for this line? I can't seem to find anything, we'll either need to find and add a source or remove it as this may not be true. The line appears to have been added by the user 21stCenturyguy at 00:43 on November 17, 2013. No source was provided, and the user is now inactive. Ranger Intel (talk) 14:26, May 27, 2020 (UTC)Ranger_Intel


After looking through all media available, I couldn't find anything directly confirming this. Finally, I found that this information is also on Striker's own Wikia page, and the reference is the Jaeger Designer webapp. For some reason, the line pertaining to capacity on this AKM launcher page doesn't have that reference. I've just added it in. To further support the fact the launcher stored more than one salvo of missiles, Striker's Combat Dossier refers to "K-Stunner ramjet rocket magazines", the plural term indicating multiple salvos. Furthermore, in the novelisation we see Chuch say "Ready salvo one" when preparing to fire at Otachi, again suggesting multiple salvos. In summary, the line is indeed correct and has been left untouched, and I've added in the appropriate reference that the line cites. Ranger Intel (talk) 13:58, May 29, 2020 (UTC)Ranger_Intel
