The Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, also known as Mass Accelerator Cannon, or the MAC gun or MAC cannon, is a large coilgun that serves as the primary offensive weapon for UNSC warships

A MAC typically fires slugs of either ferric tungsten or depleted uranium slugs at 40% of the speed of light. The high muzzle speed gives the 600 ton slug the kinetic energy and momentum necessary to damage a target and partially mitigates the unguided nature of the slug and its lack of maneuverability

Nice where I can get one of those?

Its actually called a Gauss(aka coilgun).

Based on Carl Friedrich Gauss research on magnetic fields on projectiles.

In the freaking 1800s.

Thanks for clearing that up, anon. I'm glad you can apply Real Life to a Game. Maybe you should go shoot up a High School 'cause Grand Theft Auto told you too...?

Your information has served no purpose other then to educate those who have forgotten what you've wrote already.

Nobody uses BFG anymoar?

Would be interesting to know how they overcame projectile saturation.

From the book Fall of Reach:

========
FLEETCOM didn’t really expect anything to attack the Reach Military Complex. It was the heart of the UNSC military operations. If anything did attack it, the battle would be a short one. There were twenty Super MAC guns in orbit. They could accelerate a three-thousand-ton projectile to point four-tenths the speed of light—and place that projectile with pinpoint accuracy. If that wasn’t enough to stop a Covenant fleet, there were anywhere from a hundred to a hundred and fifty ships in the system at any given time.
========

Super MACs fire a 3000 ton projectile at 0.04% the speed of light, and have an impact yield equal to 48 gigatons of TNT.

Most of the UNSC's battleships have smaller MAC guns which fire 600 ton projectiles at 0.01% of the speed of light, giving them an impact yield of 58.6 kilotons of TNT.

railgun fires projectiles faster. the fastest projectile speed ever recorded was out of a railgun, 20 kilometers a second (i think) but the rails melted. they fired the projectile into the back of the gun conventionally (gunpowder) and the railgun accelerated it further. you need a huge goddamn electric potential across the rails.
but if we're ignoring logic here, they should have used a railgun instead of a gausse gun

That GIF showed me nothing, but im assuming you mean a SHIVA nuclear warhead, also from the halo storyline?

a halo mod for freelancer. How disturbing.
