In [[2520]], the {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} {{ | In [[2520]], the {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} was outfitted with ten such weapons. During the [[Human-Covenant War]] in [[2531]], these weapons were often used to provide [[Orbital bombardment|orbital fire support]] for the ship's crew.{{Ref/Note|Text=All ''Halo Wars'' media, including the [[Halo Wars Timeline Events|in-game timeline]], the [http://www.halowars.com/GameInfo/SpiritOfFire.aspx official website], and ''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]'', state that the ''Spirit of Fire'' was outfitted with a single MAC during its military refit. During [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGFvbnJJ6Fg&t=1073s the cutscene] prior to the level ''[[Dome of Light]]'', [[James Gregory Cutter|Captain Cutter]] asks, ''"Can we use the ship's '''''cannons''''' to take it out directly?"'' At the end of this level, the player is able to request forty MAC rounds in very rapid succession, which is impossible for a standard MAC; throughout most of the game, the player can request up to four MAC rounds simultaneously. In addition, the rounds released by the "MAC Blast" power cause very limited damage. Thus, it stands to reason that these weapons were used to provide orbital bombardment by the ''Spirit of Fire'' rather than its primary MAC, which would cause great collateral damage and would have a considerably lower rate of fire.}} During the [[Battle of Trove]], these cannons were used to defend against a [[Covenant]] [[Proclamation's Tithe|''CPV''-class heavy destroyer]], as well as numerous [[Taaku Xur-pattern Spirit|Spirit dropships]] and their [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] escorts, while the ship's [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] and [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] complement fended off boarders and repaired the drive core.{{Ref/Reuse|Repairs}} | ||
