	Gun pod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A gun pod is a detachable pod or pack containing machine guns or automatic cannon, mounted externally on a vehicle such as a military aircraft.
		Gun pods may be mounted to supplement the vehicle's integral guns, or to add gun armament to a vehicle that has no guns.
		Podded guns have an additional advantage for some vehicles of isolating the weapon's recoil and gases from delicate internal components, such as radar, and for jet aircraft, allow the weapons to be mounted away from the intakes of the engines, reducing problems of gun-gas ingestion.

		A gun pod is a detachable external pod or pack allowing one or more machine guns or automatic cannon to be carried by a military aircraft.
		Modern gun pods are usually fitted with suspension lugs to be carried on standard aircraft pylons.
		The gun pod is self contained in that it houses a battery and gun control assembly which maintains the electrical power requirements well within capabilities of the parent aircraft.

		The gun pod is stored in a collapsed form in a concealed port on the right leg of the mecha when in fighter and gerwalk mode, and fires out of a special port near the top of the leg.

		A second heavy laser CANNOT be mounted on the gun pod initially, as the unit would not fit in the right leg weapons bay with the gun pod.
