I'm not certain on that. I know the SOLG uses kinetic weapons, which is basically just gravity dropping a stake into the ground which wouldn't take much effort at all to launch. Possibly something simple like a piston or even magnets to launch it. Granted, the piston option would mean that physics would take effect and cause the SOLG to shift orbit just a little bit with each launch, however even something simple like magnetics could potentially alleviate that. It'd turn the thing into something like a rail gun, but it's hard to say just how it actually fired.
