The orbital ion cannon is a satellite-based particle beam weapon system developed by the Global Defense Initiative. It allows the delivery of accurate and powerful tactical strikes. The firepower and blast radius of the Ion Cannon has increased significantly since its first deployment. It should be noted that the Ion Cannon becomes non-operational during low power conditions or when a Space Command Uplink is not receiving information from a operational Tech Center (this is to prevent Nod cyber warfare attacks which occured during the First Tiberium War)

Drop Pods are rapidly deployed squads of of elite troopers and grenadiers from the GDSS Philadelphia. It should be noted that Drop Pods becomes unavailable during low power conditions or when a Space Command Uplink is not receiving information from a operational Command Post (Drop Pods require tracking information from the Command Post)
