Designed to provide direct support to infantry units the Stormfire class of
direct support vehicle boasts the largest plasma weapon ever built by the
Delsun Comagistrate. Though not designed as a grav tank the Stormfire was
occassionly pressed into service as one. Here the low rate of fire could be a
hinderance but few vehicles would survive a hit by the 250Mj plasma cannon.
