Particle Cannons is a Wing Diver weapon type. These rapid-fire weapons (most have a hidden fire rate of approximately 10 shots/s) are generally affected greatly by the Wing Diver's momentum, causing shots to move in the direction of flight rather than the direction of aim unless the Wing Diver stays on the ground.

EDF 4.1[]

Wing Diver Ixion Weapon Level: 0
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 12
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B
Energy Cost : 1.1 %
A prototype of the Ixion Vulcan particle cannon, this mid-range weapon has surprising firepower. Its rapid-fire particle beam will destroy almost anything it hits. However, without its own energy unit, it draws all its energy from the Wing Diver's energy unit, depleting the main energy gauge with every shot. It cannot be used during an emergency reload.


Wing Diver Ixion 2-Way Weapon Level: 1
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 12x2
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B
Energy Cost : 0.85 %
A double-barreled Vulcan particle cannon that shoots two beams in a V shape. It has surprising firepower, but because its beams cannot be controlled as they're fired, aerial aiming is quite tricky.


Wing Diver Ixion MX Weapon Level: 3
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 27
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B
Energy Cost : ---- %
An Ixion Vulcan particle cannon with a mini energy unit, developed to correct the Ixion's bad habit of draining the Wing Diver's energy. While this outstanding weapon has zero energy cost, its built-in generator lowers its rate of fire.


Wing Diver Ixion Mark II Weapon Level: 5
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 18
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B
Energy Cost : 0.75 %
An improved version of the Ixion MX that connects directly to the Wing Diver's gear, with no built-in energy unit. This powerful weapon also boasts an improved rate of fire.


Wing Diver Ixion 3-Way Weapon Level: 8
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 9x3
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : A
Energy Cost : 1.1 %
A triple-barreled Vulcan particle cannon that shoots beams in three directions at once. Vulcan particle cannon beams cannot be controlled during fire, however, making aerial aiming rather tricky and often forcing a land battle instead.


Wing Diver Power Stinger Weapon Level: 8
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 16
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B-
Energy Cost : 0.75 %
A special gun that fires high-energy bullets which begin to drop from the weight of gravity shortly after discharge, necessitating a keen eye and a curved trajectory. However, these heavy bullets not only inflict heavy damage on their target, but also temporarily immobilize anything or anyone they strike on contact. Similar to the Ixion, this weapon has no independent power unit, instead relying on the Wing Diver to provide it with energy. As it consumes this energy each time it's discharged, it cannot be used during an emergency reload.


Wing Diver Ixion Wide Weapon Level: 12
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 25x2
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : A+
Energy Cost : 0.95 %
A double-barreled Ixion Vulcan particle cannon. It fires in a wide cone, making it difficult to control. Its firepower is surprisingly high, but it depletes the Wing Diver's energy gauge with each shot, and cannot be fired during an emergency reload.


Wing Diver Ixion 5-Way Weapon Level: 16
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 10x5
Range : 180.0 m
Accuracy : A+
Energy Cost : 1.4 %
A quintuple-barreled Vulcan particle cannon that shoots beams in five directions at once. Although extremely powerful, it never entered mass production since its design made it unsuitable for the Wing Divers' close-combat engagements.


Wing Diver Ixion 4-Way Weapon Level: 22
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 19x4
Range : 180.0 m
Accuracy : A+
Energy Cost : 1.3 %
A quadruple-barreled Vulcan particle cannon that shoots diffuse beams in four directions. Although extremely powerful, its inability to control beams in midair and its high energy requirements meant the Wing Divers never adopted it as a standard-issue weapon.


Wing Diver Dynastrike Weapon Level: 23
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 24x8
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B-
Energy Cost : 2.7 %
A prototype of the Dynastrike particle Gatling gun that fires multiple diffused particle beams. Boasts great destructive power for a mere prototype and can attack over a wide area, making it a particularly effective weapon in combat.


Wing Diver Ixion Mark III Weapon Level: 28
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 87
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B-
Energy Cost : 0.7 %
A enhanced version of the Ixion Vulcan particle cannon. It has a small internal energy unit, which reduces its energy costs, and it also boasts dramatically increased destructive power. However, because its developers prioritized its performance, its accuracy is slightly below that of other models. The EDF does not generally consider it a suitable weapon for the Wing Divers.


Wing Diver Power Stinger D Weapon Level: 35
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 60
Range : 200.0 m
Accuracy : B-
Energy Cost : 0.6 %
A special gun that fires high-energy bullets which begin to drop from the weight of gravity shortly after discharge, necessitating a keen eye and a curved trajectory. However, these heavy bullets not only inflict heavy damage on their target, but also temporarily immobilize anything or anyone they strike on contact. Similar to the Ixion, this weapon has no independent power unit, instead relying on the Wing Diver to provide it with energy. As it consumes this energy each time it's discharged, it cannot be used during an emergency reload.


Wing Diver Ixion 6-Way Weapon Level: 36
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 45x6
Range : 180.0 m
Accuracy : A+
Energy Cost : 1.3 %
This six-barreled Ixion Vulcan particle cannon sprays beams in six directions at once.


Wing Diver Dynastrike α Weapon Level: 52
ROF : ---- /sec
Damage : 55x8
Range : 260.0 m
Accuracy : B-
Energy Cost : 1.3 %
The masterpiece of the Dynastrike particle Gatling gun line, this extremely powerful weapon has been redesigned from the ground up for improved energy efficiency. A further enhancement to the already excellent Dynastrike Z, it solves some of the previous model's problems, earning itself the name Dynastrike α.
