- Danger Close: A heavy payload of weapons makes the Mandalorian Gunship a powerful force on land, air and stars.
- Fast: Be it atmosphere or vacuum the MMG-86V has enough speed to grant it the name "Fast Attack Craft"
- No Shields: Starfighters and larger vessels have no problem blasting through the Mandalorian Steel hull of this ship without shields
- Power Draw: The Mandalorian Gunship must return to the fleet to recharge its turbolaser consistently during long engagements
Taking inspiration from Mandalorian War Droids, the primary nose gun of the gunship is an array of shockwave generator rods. Though only 4 their size and the power behind them they hit harder than a basilisk's shockwave generator array which were able to punch through most starship hulls with ease. Easily the most impressive gun on the ship however is the MMG-86V's main gun. The turbolaser array situated atop the center of the ship sports two double barrel heavy turblasers. Linked together the weapon requires its own small power bank and is operated by a team of two gunners. Because of its impressive stopping power however it must be used sparingly as once the dedicated powerpack runs out of juice the ship will need to either recharge or resort to utilizing the ship's main reactor which could potentially leave the ship dead in the water.
It is because of this power draw potential that the design team behind this ship decided to forego shields with the expectation that the Mandalorian Steel hull and armor plating would deter most kinetic damage and enough energy damage for a pilot to either escape or destroy their target, though most larger capital ships and elite starfighters have more than enough firepower to take down the MMG-86V. Despite these attempts to mitigate power draw the ship still must often return to the fleet to be refueled in the middle of battle. Even with these shortcomings though the Mandalorian Gunship has never been better and using blaster tech from MandalMotors along with its other weapons gives it enough stopping power to be a real threat in the stars again.
