General Information

This turret is designed as the best defence against the bigger ships in the Cruiser and Destroyer class unless special research is done. The weapon utilizes a ultra high emission laser beam that can literally cut a ship in half a swiss cheese out of a ship.

Weapons Details

The weapon uses a nano diameter laser beam that is capable of sustained fire for up to 30 seconds per hour. This weapon poses a seriosu threat to most ships because the amount of cuts it forces to ships to emit many small force fields or seriously weakening dynamic armor. A good analogy is to cut a block of butter into 10 pieces with a knife, it won't take much to destroy it.

Defence Details

This turret relies solely on a force field powered by the same fission reactor that powers the weapons system. Its a very durable shield but once it has been neutralizede even an interceptor can destroy this turret.

Notes

Unless you plan on researching for ION turrets this is your best defence against big ships. It does however do a very good job at it. It is suggested that users of this turret should have some Destroyer class ships to counter the largest Battleship class. The turret does however outperform anything else at Cruiser class ships.
