Strategic Orbital Linear Gun
Development was prioritized after Belka declared war in March 1995, but construction was halted after Belka's surrender and canceled in 1996.[1][2] The Grey Men seized the abandoned satellite in late 2010, completed it, and equipped it with a V2 warhead.[1][3] The SOLG was destroyed by Razgriz Squadron on December 31, 2010, and its V2 warhead was vaporized in the explosion.[1][3] The platform was intended to fire Kinetic Energy Weapon shells, but any ballistic shell could be placed into it.[1]
The SOLG was originally created as a countermeasure against Yuktobania during the Cold War.[1]

Creation
Its construction began in the early 1990s under Osea's Strategic Defense Initiative.[2]
Circum-Pacific War
After Razgriz Squadron disabled its control systems, the satellite began a controlled descent toward the Osean capital of Oured.[3]
Design
The SOLG's main structure consisted of a one-kilometer-long octagonal gun barrel with four rotating auto-loading magazines.[4] It was powered by solar panel arrays and required target coordinates from a ground-based relay station to fire.[4]
