Armament and Equipment: internal link
A Barracuda is armed with a nose-mounted, pilot aimed [[Ion Cannon]]. This is the aircraft's primary weapon of use in dogfights, backed up by two [[drone]] controlled [[Burst Cannons]] in the wings. For ground attacks, it is primarily armed with wing mounted missile pods. When used in an ground attack role a Barracuda can carry additional armament of up to four [[Seeker missile]]s. These are not controlled by the pilot but by a [[Markerlight]] operator on the ground.
All Barracudas are equipped with ''escape pods''. In the event that the aircraft sustains serious damage the pilot can eject. Some versions of Barracuda might include [[Blacksun Filter|]]s (night-fighting filterssensors), [[Disruption Pod]], ''disruption pods'' and [[Decoy Launcher]]s for additional protection.<sup>1</sup>
