Description
Aperture Science Sentry Turret. Blueprints for this turret were found in a large underground test facility long abandoned. They seem to have been designed for use against humans, and have been upgraded to armor piercing rounds to make them useful against robotic enemies. Still, they are only effective against units with Light armor due to their outdated design.
Characteristics[]
