Quad turbolaser batteries on a pre-Clone Wars-era Lucrehulk-class battleship
A quad turbolaser cannon was a heavier version of the quad laser cannon and at least one variety was produced by Taim & Bak.
Characteristics
Quad turbolasers were magnitudes more powerful than the quad laser cannons, which were installed on many lesser warships and freighters.
Weapons of this kind were used aboard a variety of capital ships, like the Lucrehulk-class battleship,[1] the Providence-class carrier/destroyer,[2] the Acclamator-class assault ship,[3] the Victory-class Star Destroyer and the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer.[4] They were also utilized as part of ground artillery by many factions, along with one- or two-barreled turbolaser cannons.[5]
