The M910 Rampart is a heavier alternative in the Rampart series of point-defense guns, primarily outfitted on the heavy warships of the UNSC; [[cruiser]]s and [[battleship]]s. It was in service as early as [[2493]] aboard the {{Class|Valiant|super-heavy cruiser}} and was later a standard instalment on successor cruiser classes - with the notable exception of the {{Class|Marathon|heavy cruiser}}. The foremost exception to the trend of M910s installed on large combatants is the usage of the M910 aboard the {{Class|Point Blank|prowler}}, a stealth warship class often itself nicknamed a "stealth cruiser". | The M910 Rampart is a heavier alternative in the Rampart series of point-defense guns, primarily outfitted on the heavy warships of the UNSC; [[cruiser]]s and [[battleship]]s.
