Plasma Destructor
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Plasma Destructors are vast Plasma Weapons, second only in size to the Plasma Annihilator. They are mounted on Imperial Titans and provide heavy firepower over a larger area than other weapons due to their ability to fire multiple times in a row.[1]
The Plasma destructor is commonly found on Warlord Titans.[2] The Imperator class titan can also carry one or more Plasma Destructors on its carapace hard-points.[3] Warhound, Warbringer Nemesis, and Reaver Titans are not fitted with these weapons as their plasma reactors are too small to power them.
Known Patterns
- Sunfury-Pattern Plasma Destructor: carried by Mars-Alpha Warlords, is also referred to as a plasma annihilator. [4]
- Suzerain-Class Plasma Destructor: carried by Warmaster Titans.[5] Requires a great deal of power to operate and is not unlike the Plasma Annihilator in function. The Warmaster is only able to operate the weapon due to a specific secondary reactor meant to power it.[5]
