The Xyston strikes distant aircraft with its penetrating railgun, potentially skewering multiple targets in a single shot. Unlike equivalent long-range AA, it does not need to stockpile its shots. Xyston does not have high AoE, but it is nonetheless a powerful tool for blunting incoming air assaults or picking off aircraft from extreme range.

Each shot deals 700 damage in a line, with a 5s reload time.

Because it is a precision weapon, you are advised to build at least 3 Targeting Facilities to minimize radar dot wobble to help it find its mark.
