I'm not talking about the normal AA guns and GARDIAN lasers. I'm talking about the massive cruiser-killing batteries like the one on Tuchanka.

Also, frigates DO have mass accelerator weapons. If they only had lasers, then that talk of them having the lowest projectile velocity in the space combat section of the codex would be really suspect. Even fighters get mass accelerator weapons. I can buy the projectiles burning up in the atmosphere BUT I don't actually know how probably that is.
