===First Battle of Requiem===
At least four of these weapons were placed in strategic locations around the Gravity Well Generator on Requiem as a defensive measure. The crew of had to disable them in order to destroy the generator. Two of the massive cannons were destroyed by the Mini-MAC aboard a Mammoth commanded by the then-Commander Thomas Lasky. The other two were "tricked" into firing on each other by Cortana who, with John-117, had infiltrated the weapons' control center.
===New Phoenix Incident===
The Ur-Didact's ship, Mantle's Approach, was protected by several of these weapons. John-117 was able to disable them by destroying their power cores.
