Mass Cannon
Producer: Tarot Labs/GMA
Research Company: Tarot Labs/GMA
Description:
Basically, an advanced mass driver has been combined with a reinforced projectile. The projectile, while being simple looking, is actually a lot more complex. The projectile contains a compression unit which, as it leaves the barrel of the launcher, generates large amounts of mass inside of itself, causing it to generate a large amount of gravity. As the gravity increases, the weapon energizes the molecules, causing them to move quickly and generate large amounts of heat, due to this change, and a release in negative matter, it opens mini-wormholes, which it moves in and out of, causing it to travel almost instantly from start to target. A percentage is sent to the warhead, covering it in a thin layer of plasma, repelled and kept in place by magnets. The plasma allows for maximum penetration. As the weapon approaches its target, mini A.L.F. units repel the enemies shield from the weapon, allowing it to pass through them as if it were moving through butter. A mille-second before contact, the plasma is shot forward, burning a large whole in the armor in front of the weapon, or weakening it severally. The warhead then begins to spin, allowing it to punch through the armor to the inside of the ship, the projectile’s compressor then reverses and collides the molecules it has compressed, generating a high powered blast of energy that cripples or disintegrates all it touches.

Not at all, it is fired from a launcher, it doesn't have the same sophisticated guidance, and it's much cheaper, it's unshielded, doesn't use the same form of explosive, not as large a weapon, this is projectile this had no armor, it uses diffrent theories... etc.

(OOC: note Guild tech based worm holes have been disabled, so it just uses its standard engines)
