Development Thread: If necessary
Manufacturer: Ringovinda Systems
Model: Fusion Beam-class solar ionization cannon
Affiliation: Open market
Modularity: Can choose whether to have one, two or three tubes in one hardpoint, each tube counting as 12 turbolasers
Production: Mass-Produced.
Material: Alusteel turret, turbolaser components, focusing coils, ion accu-accelerator (Fusion Beams used ions after all)
Classification: Solar ionization cannon
Size: Ship-Mounted
Length: 15 meters
Weight: 35 tons (single-tube turret; add 15 tons per tube)
Ammunition Type: Power reactor
Ammunition Capacity: Turbolaser standard
Effective Range: Turbolaser standard
Rate of Fire: One shot per 20 seconds (12x turbolaser standard, maximum safe rate of fire with one tube)
Special Features: It can partially penetrate shields and cause armor to melt where the fusion beam impacts
Description: The Fusion Beam-class solar ionization cannon fires beams of accelerated, excited ions traveling at nearly the speed of light. However, using a single Fusion Beam drains as much power as 25 standard turbolaser tubes. It was also prone to overheating if fired in too quick a succession. It has a low rate of fire. It can also penetrate shields and deal structural damage to durasteel and alusteel hulls.
