The Mark 40 Spitfire is a refinement of the older Mark 33, featuring a higher muzzle velocity, improved tracking speed, and better accuracy than its predecessors. The gun mount is also several tons lighter thanks to it being armoured with a new formulation of [[Titanium-A armor]] while still maintaining the same level of protection. The {{Class|Autumn|heavy cruiser}} sports four of these coilgun batteries to complement its [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]].{{Ref/Book|HWF|Page=26-27}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22Cruisers}}
