Barrymore Munitions Works was a manufacturer of specialist ammunition based on Solaris VII.

Overview[edit]

Although very expensive by 3053 standards, the ammunition made by Barrymore Munitions was worth the price and they were in high demand. Their creations included:

  • 80 mm artillery rounds for the Armstrong cannon capable of discharging inferno propellant
  • Missiles able to act like torpedoes (ideal for submerged combat) that more than doubled their specifications range
  • Shaped-charged warheads with enormous penetration power
  • ECM-jamming rounds

These modifications are too unstable for real military operations, though their benefits usually outweigh their risks.[1]

The company also operated the Barrymore Range, located in Roland Fields.[2]
