cute 1-cycle, it's based on the punch bats tech that lets you equip the ballista with a fast bring up without using mod cancels. This is achieved by firing the arbalest then punching and swapping to a fast bring up weapon (e.g. heavy cannon). Interestingly while this can also be done with the destroyer blade, only in the former case the ballista can be fired immediately after the bats. Rocket launcher and combat shotgun primary fires are also briefly unavailable after a punch bats, granted you can make use of their alternate fire much quicker
