Each of the launchers is supplied with two tons of ammunition, while its Streak technology prevents wasted shots. In close range, [[Tiercel]] [[improved heavy medium laser]]s and [[Harpa]] [[heavy small laser]]s add to ''Persepolis''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s firepower to finish off an opponent. However, flaws in the Falcons' manufacturing process sometimes caused these [[heavy laser]]s to explode. The fighter is not considered the fastest of its class, however it somewhat makes up for its lack of speed by being well armored, with nine tons of [[Compound Gamma]] [[ferro-aluminum]] armor.<ref>''Technical Readout: Prototypes'', p. 196 - ''Persepolis'' - Weapons and abilities of the ''Persepolis''</ref> ==Variants== *; ''Persepolis'' 2 : Introduced in [[3134]] this variant of the ''Persepolis'' carries two [[ER large laser]]s and two [[improved heavy medium laser]]s mounted in the nose, while two aft-mounted [[improved heavy small laser]]s provide rear defense; these weapons are tied into a [[targeting computer]]. Each wing carries a single [[LRM-20]] with [[Artemis V FCS]]. The armor was replaced by [[ferro-lamellor]] armor, which greatly reduces damage from enemy weaponry.
