Anti-Aircraft Gun

The howitzer is a world object

Characteristics
Used to destroy aircraft before the war, several of these guns are found throughout the wasteland. The Boomers acquired several of these guns from Area 2. They are used to protect Nellis Air Force Base from strangers near and far, as well as preventing anyone from effectively spying on the base.

There is an inoperable gun on the western ridge of the Fort. Dale Barton salvaged it from Yuma, Arizona. The Legion hopes to use it during the Second Battle of Hoover Dam for suppressing NCR marksmen, but need to replace the firing mechanism.

There is another howitzer in the wreckage of Hopeville Missile Base West, found near the marked men camp. The howitzer is part of the debris that makes up the barricade next to the mountain wall.

An anti-aircraft gun is positioned at the top of Hoover Dam. The gun can be rigged to explode or reprogrammed during the Caesar's Legion quest Arizona Killer to assassinate the NCR president, Aaron Kimball.

At Big MT, fixed examples sit above on the X-7a "Left Field" artillery launch. The guns at Big MT fire test rounds comprised of saturnite. One of these shells can be used in a test firing targeted at the X-7b "Boom Town" target zone. The resulting crater reveals a hidden cache that one can loot. The gun has infinite ammunition but it can only be fired into the X-7b and it only takes one shell to make the crater.
