Shoulder Weapon 3 (Orbit Cannons)

Orbit cannons are a specialized type of assault weapon. They launch up to 3 autonomous small turrets that are capable of swarming, flanking, and whittling down enemies with large volumes of oppressive fire. Unlike missiles, these weapons have the ability navigate and chase enemies along complicated paths making them extremely difficult to dodge. While very unorthodox, Orbit weapons are very effective at creating the illusion of a "Squad" attack when in reality there is only a single unit.

The inspiration for the design of this weapon was in Armored Core 2. In game, the "Octo" was just a rocket launcher, but I always felt it really never looked like a rocket launcher - So, here is how I imagined the "Octo" would function instead. The Orbit Cannon style weapon is also from Armored Core 2 - They've always been an unusual but extremely fun weapon to play with, so I just put 2 and 2 together :)
