"Members of my escort have completed assembly of an E-Web heavy repeating blaster. If you are unfamiliar with this weapon, I am sure that Republican Shock Trooper Carasynthia Dune of Alderaan will advise you that she has witnessed many of her ranks vaporize mid-descent facing the predecessor of this particular model. Or perhaps the decommissioned Mandalorian hunter, Din Djarin, has heard the songs of the Siege of Mandalore, when gunships outfitted with similar ordnance laid waste to fields of Mandalorian recruits in the Night of a Thousand Tears."

E-HOB heavy repeating laser cannon was a heavy repeating blaster cannon. It was based on the Imperial Era E-Web heavy repeating blaster cannon[1] and acted as its successor, with Moff Gideon identifying it as part of the overall "E-Web" series. An Imperial remnant led by Gideon utilized the blaster on Nevarro[2] in 9 ABY.[3] The cannon was able to be utilized while detached from its turret body.[2]
