The uranium slug cannon is a turret-only ranged weapon. It is the main armament of the uranium slug turret. It fires 1 round that deals massive damage but with a large minimum range.

This weapon cannot be independently obtained in normal play. It is provided here for comparisons sake.

Acquisition

Uranium slug cannons spawn on all uranium slug turrets. However, it is not possible to obtain it directly in normal play. Buildings do not drop it upon destructions and pawns carrying it will not drop it on death, downing, or complete loss of manipulation like other weapons. It can be spawned in by the Debug actions menu but, like all unobtainable weapons, will disappear after being dropped.

It also has large amounts of armor penetration, able completely mitigate the armor effects of armor with a sharp armor of 75 or lower, and able to have a 50% full damage chance and a 50% half damage chance on 175 sharp protection, only provided by legendary marine or cataphract armor, and closely met by masterwork cataphract armor.
