Promethean Sledgehammer

The M877 Prometheus Orbital Assault Cannon, otherwise known as the Promethean Sledgehammer is an AcDragonian superweapon modeled directly off of the Ion Cannon, Bloody Knuckle, Asteroid Destroyer and the Space Catapult. It is a direct upgrade of the Asteroid Destroyer itself using technology that was purchased from Chandelier and even technology from other nations that did business with the CCR before the Dragon Alliance knew what they were. Unlike other energy cannons of similar design, which rely on firing out a concentrated beam of exorbitantly large amounts of energy, the Promethean Sledgehammer works in a similar principle to a magnifying glass. Using a modified version of the plasma reactor design that Dragonia uses in many of their ships and vehicles, AcDragonia scaled it up and with a combination of size and 50 plasma turbines, the weapon essentially generates a miniature star which is where the weapons destructive force comes from. Instead of firing out energy as a beam, using a complex mesh of optical lenses, fiber optic filaments and other channeling technology, a beam of pure solar energy is ultra-concentrated and directed at targets. This beam is made up almost purely of ultraviolet plasma energy and those who have seen the weapon in action state that the beam looks akin to a blazing orange beam that has an eerie purple outer glow that cascades through the ultraviolet color spectrum. Those directly under or near the beam can expect to be vaporized under the sheer power and heat of the concentrated beam. Those within a close proximity of about 250 meters will suffer intense UV radiation exposure that causes severe sunburn on unprotected skin, damage to eyes and computer sensors. There's even been reported instances of mild sunburn out to 500 meters.
The Promethean Sledgehammer, using a focal array can adjust the beams strength which, unlike other weapons of similar type, allow the weapon to be modified to suit whatever task it's used for. The beam can also be widened to cover more area at the cost of raw power. The weapon also has the ability to completely defocus the beam which will bathe an area in ultraviolet radiation. This is used as a semi-non-lethal approach in instances where, for example, enemies hiding in a forest need flushed out. Extended exposure to this can cause cancer and skin burns which usually means people surrender more often than not. 
While firing, if one looks up to where the Promethean Sledgehammer is firing it's so bright that it's almost like staring into the sun. The heat from the beam can also set nearby objects on fire.
The Promethean Sledgehammer has replaced the Ballistic Burst Missile as the primary AcDragonian Superweapon. There is a scaled down version of the Promethean Sledgehammer for use on ships called the Promethean Spear.
