Advanced Targeting
Strengths:
* Hardened - The NK-8 turret is made from extremely durable quadanium steel
* Powerful - The NK-8 utilized modern power and regulation systems to support its dedicated reactor system making the turret twice as powerful as the older NK-7
* Advanced Targeting - The NK-8 has several targeting systems for superior targeting capabilities
Weaknesses:
* Large - The NK-8 turret is large and easy to target visually at close range.
* Slow Tracking - The NK-8 is a heavy weapon mount and is slow tracking so it can not engage small craft under 50 meters.
* Range Effective - The NK-8 targeting becomes less effective over fifty kilometers
Description: The NK-8 is the next generation in the NK line of Ion cannons. Four turbine reactors and a dedicated bank of overcharged capacitors provide the power needed for the massive weapon to fire. Twice as powerful as the NK-7, the NK-8 packs the power of two heavy ion cannons in one powerful bolt. Built from durable quadranium steel the turret offers good protection from light capital and starfighter scale weapon systems.
