The 72 twin auto-blaster was an auto-blaster manufactured by Gyrhil. B-wing starfighters had a single 72 twin auto-blaster under the cockpit,[1] with some carrying a second pair in the optional mount next to it. The auto-blaster was capable of automatically firing on enemy targets, but many pilots chose to turn off this capability and directly control the weapon themselves.[2]
