TYPE 84 VERTICAL LOOP HIGH VELOCITY ELECTROMAGNETIC ACCELERATOR
The Type 84 VL-HVEA, known commonly as the "Loop", is a large coilgun weapon mounted on Imperial capital ships. One kilometre in length, it contains 15 full verticle loops measuring 120m in diameter, extending the railgun track from 1km to 5.6km. This takes advantage of the constant acceleration of coilgun type weapons to greatly increase the muzzle velocity of the Type 84 compared to the Super-MaC Mark III.
The Type 84 uses anti-gravity repulsors along the track to maintain the round's momentum, stabilize it against unexpected changes in velocity and gravity, and prevent the round from leaving the track. It fires 900mm Murata Q-Cyl ammunition
