MG7 proton torpedo launcher/Legends
The Krupx MG7 proton torpedo launcher was the device that fired the torpedoes that brought down the first Death Star. The MG7 launcher contained a magazine of three MG7-A proton torpedoes, each with a range of over a half kilometer. Rebel T-65 X-wing starfighters were outfitted with a pair of MG7s, one on either side of the fuselage, giving the fighter a cumulative warhead capacity of six torpedoes.
