Sol Defence Satellite - Also manufactured by the Fujikawa Zaibatsu, the Sol Defence Satellite is the big brother of the Cygnus Automated Sentry Gun. Like the Cygnus, it is found defending most installations in human space, however, unlike the Cygnus the Sol is not an "average" product. Sol defence satellites have been at the top of the market of fixed defensive satellite and Fujikawa's number #1 for years and the reason for its success are two simple attributes. Overwhelming firepower and superior armor.
There are currently four versions of the Sol. The civillian or standard version is the most common and the basis of all others. Its armament is comprised of two twin capital laser turrets supported by 4 capital missile launchers which give the Solenough firepower to challenge a cruiser, against smaller targets the Sol is equipped with 28 defensive turrets consisting of laser turrets, flechette flak cannons and anti-fighter beam weapons. For protection the Fujikawa Zaibatsu spared no expense and armored the Sol with thorium-arcanite armor.
The next most common version is the one used by the Imperial military and it's essentially the same as the standard save for the addition of four triple light plasma cannons that enhance the satellite's firepoweragainst corvettes and capital ships. The next version is the one used by the Freedom Guard and it consists mostly of stolen or salvaged imperial or civillian satellites patchworked into use, it is mostly identical to the Imperial version since it adds 4 general purporse double rail turrets. The last and the most uncommon is the one used by the Tograns, this version also adds four weapons but of an unknow type and it has been observed that the laser cannons are significantly more powerful than before.
