While not as destructive as the [[Rumble Cannon (Apocalypse)|Rumble Cannon]] nor does it share the range and fire power of the [[Plasma Turret Cannon (Apocalypse) |Plasma Turret Cannon ]], the GLMs enjoy the benefits shared by all missiles in that they home in on their targets. This means it is the more accurate of the three tank turrets.  
A launcher suited only to the [[Griffon_AFV_(Apocalypse)|Griffon AFV]]. Uses a large missile with good tracking, damage, range and flight time with full 360&ordm; targeting.


It also shares the disadvantage of the missiles in that it is susceptible to missile jamming and a smaller ammunition supply.


The extra range and homing ability of the GLM missiles give the Griffon AFV's a new lease of life, allowing them to launch attacks while keeping a good distance away from any form of retaliation. As per standard procedure, the tank(s) would have to be strategically placed around the city in order to even have a chance at intercepting UFOs that are in-transit.
