How badly do you want that UFO to die? Whatever sin that UFO committed, whatever slight it has performed against you, that UFO WILL pay. With its life. Only mountable on the Firestorm, and only gained after assaulting a Battleship, the Fusion Lance will crush any UFO that strays into XCOM Airspace with no questions asked. Overkill in just about every sense of the word, you will never have to worry about a UFO Interception going south with a Fusion Lance equipped Firestorm on every continent. Not even a Battleship will be able to withstand the Fusion Lance.

The Fusion Lance research requires you to first salvage a Fusion Core, which can only be done by assaulting a Battleship. If you have the Slingshot DLC installed, you will be able to acquire Fusion Lances very early on, but you will still have to wait until you can build Firestorms before using them.
