Like the Gauntlet Ixion, the Whittard mk-II is a only ship who its main shot is never upgraded when you collect powerups.

---Laser Weapon---
Meson Rays:
This weapon based on the laser attack from the Stage 4 enemies in RayStorm, the Marius 4R-LASE and the Hannibal. The Whittard mk-II generates a fan of red lasers that fire straight ahead when the Whittard mk-II is not moving horizontally, and pierce all enemies, whether destroyed by the lasers or not. It doesn't have a particularly fast recharge, though. Moving horizontally allows the lasers to sweep left or right to damage enemies in multiple locations. This laser is only powerful if it can target an enemy continuously.

---Missile Weapon---
Scatter Missiles
This weapon is based on the attack from the Stage 2 Archelon in second form from Ether Vapor, the Whittard mk-II fires a fast firing missiles that fire straight ahead which is similar to attack from the stage 6 mid boss. They explode when they impacts with an enemy or towards the top end of the screen. When they explode, an all-direction burst of fire is released. This weapon is extremely effective against popcorn enemies, but almost ineffective against large enemies, unless the missiles themselves hit the enemies.

---SP Ability---
Xeno Overdrive
Meson Streams (L Overdrive): The Whittard mk-II fires a longer version of it said Meson Rays that inflicts piercing continuous damage to enemies and bosses. The Meson Streams last for 5 seconds and cooldown for 10 seconds.
Scatter Storms (M Overdrive): The Whittard mk-II lets loose a rapid volley of Scatter Missiles in a spread pattern in front. The Scatter Storms last for 6 seconds and cooldown for 12 seconds.

---Bomb Weapon/EX Burst---
Divine Trident:
The Whittard mk-II's original weapon. The Whittard mk-II emits a huge shockwave as it fires a stronger version of its Laser Weapon Meson Rays with much thicker beams and longer lasting which deals catastrophic damage to anything it touches and cancels out enemy bullets, but slows the Whittard mk-II's speed down dramatically until it stops. Tapping again to fire more beams before last 5 seconds. At the third and final tap of the bomber button, it fires a grand total of 32 beams which covers the entire screen and still deals catastrophic damage to anything, but the Whittard mk-II completely immobile for a while until it stops. The Whittard mk-II becomes invincible throughout the EX Burst Attack.

Auto Bombing, it emits a huge shockwave as it unleashes a only second tap of the EX Burst instead. However, it consumes two bombs if the auto-bomb is triggered.

---Wingmen Type---
Standard Raiden Fighters Slaves:
This is the standard Slave type used from the Raiden Fighters games.

As only for Ether Vapor ships, the Slave formations can be switched in real time rather than picking up another Slave powerups if you already have two Slaves by pressing the triangle button in a similar manner of the formation change bits from Battle Garegga.

This Switch Slave formation ability can only be used if the Ether Vapor ships has at least one Slave.

---Defensive Ability---
Ether Vapor Shields:
Along with live stocks. The Ether Vapor crafts has a flexible shield counter. Taking hit from any enemies or enemy attacks, the shield counter reduces by 1. Taking hit one more time when the shield counter is depleted, the player's craft is destroyed, and makes the player lose a life. This will make a much easier to get 1CC or 1LC than the other non-Ether Vapor ships.

Maximum shield counter: 2
