==Description==
The Light Turret is an engineer ability that deploys a turret to enforce defense of a certain area. It tracks it's targets and fires continuously until the target is down. The Light Turret deals about as much damage as an [[SMG]], and needs to be purchased before the [[Medium Turret]] can be selected. The Light Turret itself is not that effective at halting enemy advances, and is best supported by the deploying [[engineer]].
