You must first upgrade to Town Hall 16 to utilize any Merged Defense. When you reach this Level, you will be given the option to purchase the ability to merge several Defenses, one of which is the Ricochet Cannon.

From there, you will need to spend 20 million Gold to combine two max Level Cannons to get the Ricochet Cannon.

Keep in mind that merging buildings is a permanent action. You will not be able to unmerge the Ricochet Cannon once you have created it.
