"For the apocalypse was initiated by the plentiful."
While having a particularly unremarkable appearance, the Cataclysm's beauty is in its mechanics and functionality. It is a vortex cannon, which shoots lightweight explosive projectiles that create an oscillating explosion that has a similar yield to a Boom 50. The X17 can shoot 17 projectiles before it must be reloaded. The result is a tremendous amount of firepower.
Controls:
To fire, select Air-to-ground, and select boom 50. Press "launch weapon" to fire. Essentially, dropping a boom 50 will fire the gun.
Installation information:
The cockpit block is magenta.
This gun should be mirror friendly.

@ThomasRoderick The post is transformative, so it follows the rules. Still, the user should have some good manners, and give credit where it is due. No need to report, but you can politely ask them to give credit for the subassemblies that they used.
Found a stolen pair of Cataclysm Artillery pieces welded with a React Cannon Rc1, what should I do?
@AstleyIndustries When bombs are attached to pylons, they are launched with the force of the pylon.
EDIT: Never mind, I found out
The system looks like an ordinary detacher-based bomb launcher, how does it work without AGs? I might want to use this concept to substitute cannons or artillery
@TehNewDucky Cool. I look forward to it.
I've modified a fighter/attacker of mine to be armed with this thing. I'll upload and link you later.
I love the weapons you build
horribly tremendous = horrendous
