The Titan-150 HESH is loaded with high-explosive squash head rounds that sacrifice some effectiveness against armor for increased lethality to enemy personnel.
The Titan-150 High Explosive Squash Head is the Vanguard's specialized anti-infantry cannon. Though it deals moderately high damage-per-shot, it does not wield the quick reload speed of the Titan-150 HEAT nor the raw damage-per-shot or velocity of the Titan-150 AP. The Titan-150 HESH instead incorporates a more lethal explosive payload, with the splash able to damage infantry out to longer distances than the Vanguard's other cannons.
As with the Vanguard's other cannons, the Titan-150 HESH's muzzle velocity is 25m/s higher than that of equivalent tank cannons found on other vehicles, whether on the Lightning or other faction's main battle tanks.
With any Vanguard turret, it is possible to get both Ribbons and Medals. Each Ribbon is a standard reward for achieving a set amount of kills with a Vanguard turret. Medals relate to how many overall kills you have with the Vanguard turret.
The reload speed certification lines for main cannons, noseguns, ESF wing mounts, Liberator bellyguns, and Flash weapons have been standardized at 5/7/8.5/9.5/10% reload speed.
