The Pounder is a Mobile Artillery designed by NSA Military Corps with the ability to "Run and Scoot" making it the most advanced Artillery unit in NSA.

Few aspects of war are more jarring than incoming artillery fire. While much has changed, artillery is still mostly the same: big guns shooting big shells at long ranges. When development of the Future Combat Systems Non-Line-of-Sight Cannon first began the goal was to create a self-propelled howitzer that was "next generation" in every way, starting with a brand new gun.
Various types of guns were developed and tested for the SPT-06 M2A3 Pounder, but none were fully satisfactory. Eventually, a high-ranking officer said, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." As a result, the NSA decided to continue to use the 160mm gun which has been depended upon by Syllixian troops for decades. The gun itself may not be new, but the ammunition it uses is state-of-the-art. Innovations in 160mm rounds have led to ultra-precise guided munitions that give the Spartan previously unheard-of levels of accuracy. Plus, the rounds themselves are deadlier than ever.
