From Quiz Weapons of Rubicon - "Armored Core 6"

Answer: Songbirds

The Songbirds, despite the pluaralization, is a single weapon. It fires two massive grenades at a time before undergoing a lengthy reload after each activation. The grenades deal tons of damage the armored units, but the poor tracking makes them easily dodged by lighter crafts; this makes the weapon ideal for boss fights, where bosses generally don't try to dodge attacks. In PvP or facing lightweight builds, however, you may as well not have bothered equipping a weapon at all.
