The AA Battery can be seen in the level [[The Storm (Level)|The Storm]] and is the main objective of the level, which is to destroy it so that [[Lord Hood]] can start attacking [[Truth]]'s ships with his small fleet or frigates. This time, the bolts that it fires are in a teardrop shape similar to shade and plasma rounds and in an almost straight trajectory. The plasma bolts are extremely powerful, since even their wake is able to take down a [[Longsword]]. However, the battery must cool off and release its excess plasma after every shot. This makes the AA battery vulnerable to infantry and ground vehicle attacks. An AA Battery under construction can be seen in the level [[The Ark (Level)|The Ark]]. Troops are often stationed on and around the gun to safeguard it from ground forces.
