The quad laser cannon, or quadlaser, was a type of weaponry commonly used on small freighters such as the YT-Series of transports (most notably the Millennium Falcon), XS stock light freighters, or (in theory) Dynamic-class freighters.
They varied in size, from the relatively small versions mounted on the Millennium Falcon to larger variants mounted on smaller warships like the Lancer-class frigate. K-wing assault fighters were armed with quad laser cannons.
Even heavier quad turbolasers were mounted on bigger warships such as the Lucrehulk-class battleship or used as ground artillery.
Quadlasers were illegal under Imperial jurisdiction by the time of the Galactic Civil War, punishable by a considerable prison sentence.
An example of the quad laser cannon was the AG-2G quad laser cannon, of which the Millennium Falcon had two.
