The Salier MGA is a heavy-duty electrically-operated multi-barrel firearm that spews out absurd amounts of 14mm UDEI class ammunition to provide significant fire suppression, and is often used as a crew-served weapon on a variety of the AIA's vehicles. Upscaled versions of the weapon are mounted on fighter craft as well.
The upwards recoil is managed much like a gyroscope by the barrels themselves which serve to counteract the forces from the number of rounds being thrown downrange. The recoil is made manageable because of the gyroscope effect and the high fire rate applying a constant force as opposed to a sporadic percussive punch which may be found with firearms that fire more slowly. The sustainability of the weapon is augmented by the large 300 round magazine that is typically machine-loaded prior to deployments, but smaller motorized speedloaders built by Salier are also requisitioned when this weapon is used.
Typically, the weapon is employed by heavy AIA troops (due to weight) and can accept a variety of attachments to augment the role it is being used for, whether fire suppression in a defensive position or an offensive assault on a hardened bunker, the MGA offers adaptability where older multi-barrel firearms wouldn't.
