			By far the best weapon to use against Shivan fighters, which have exceptional shielding and minimal hull. The Banshee is perfectly balanced against them - but can only be used on the Hercules or Valkyrie in the base game. In Silent Threat it can additionally be used on the Loki or Zeus, but its use is not as effectual given most of your enemies are going to be Terrans.}}

	The GTW-7's impressive anti-shielding capabilities make it the weapon of choice against the Shivans. The main limitation of this weapon is low weapons compatibility. It can only be fitted on a GTF Valkyrie or a GTF Hercules.		The GTW-7's impressive anti-shielding capabilities make it the weapon of choice against the Shivans.

	The only primary weapon with an actual value matched to it. ~~Should be fun~~ for ~~those who want to calculate weapon powers~~.		The only primary weapon with an actual value matched to it. The yield is 163 kJ, which is about equivalent to about nine .50 BMG rounds, and several orders of magnitude below the yields stated for the missiles.


	The Banshee is useful for Shivan vessels with high shield to armor ratios, best when coupled with hull damaging weapons- either the [[GTW Avenger]] or the [[GTW Prometheus]], or even the [[GTM Fury]].

	{{Comment\|The Banshee's higher energy requirements and lower hull damage are, in general, not worth the added shield-stripping punch when compared to the Prometheus.
