Description

Laser Cannons are developed from mining lasers. Consume very much energy and cause extreme heat, but a single shot deliver similar damage than a series of beam lasers.

Very short ranged (5-10km) and has low fire rates (1-4 seconds/shot) so must aim carefully.

Fit into large ships only, over 130t like a Cobra Mark III. The largest cannon need a ship over 400t like an Anaconda.

Always check the distance of your target! Don't waste a shot when over the range of your cannon!

All cannons can break apart asteroids as Mining lasers.

Small Cannons

Kruger CRM38 Mining Cannon

The cheapest laser cannon ever made. Ideal for mineral extraction with single shots from point-blank range (5km).

Ingram 3838C8 Dual Cannon

Short range (5km) laser cannon both for mining and defence. Technically use two Mining Cannons in alternating mode to earn double firing rate.

Hassoni C38 Quad Cannon

Four Mining Cannons in alternation mode result quadrupled firing rate (still two times slower than a Pulse Laser). The range is short (5km), need a lot of energy and the heat is going up fast but perform very well in dogfight.

Ergon A38 Blunderbuss Cannon

This powerful laser contain twin Mining Cannons linked to fire together for doubled damage but halved fire rate than a Dual Cannon. Short ranged (5km) but very well cooled: the two more barrels of a Quad Cannon is replaced to heatsinks for an exceptional combat performance. Better in dogfight than the well known Military Laser!


Military Cannons

Lance & Ferman Military Cannon

You can make your career as a fearsome bounty hunter with this weapon. Provide longer range (10km), use less energy and contain better coolers than a Quad Cannon. Still heat up faster than a Blunderbuss but deliver equally powerful punches so mine large asteroids with a single shot.

LF38 Twin Military Cannon

The biggest laser cannon both in damage, range (10km) and power consumption, as predictable from two Military Cannons linked to fire together. Aim carefully and run away when a similar white beam incoming. Provide easy mining from large asteroids but overheats right from the first shot and need at least an Anaconda to hold it.

Volt V38 Vulcan Cannon

This fearsome weapon contain long quad laser cannons to get the highest (4x) fire rate and range (10km), although sigle shots do mining-grade damages only (half than military). Exceptionally well cooled, fire 60 seconds continually without overheat which keep the Ooniversal record but the large cooling system fit into Pythons only (250t mass).
