Directed Energy cannons

Directed Energy cannons‏‎

Almost every spacefaring socoiety developed a version of the basic Directed Energy Cannon. Technically Lasers are also DE weapons but are generally grouped in their own class. A Directed nenergy  weapon, does as the term applies direct energy into a path and against a target. There are several principles and energy types used. Thermal energy, kinetic energy or a combination of both. It is observed that societies that develop a certain DE weapon usually stick with that principle and improve on it. Except Terrans, who never abandoned any weapon system and constantly develop new ones. The standard Unbion DE weapon is the TKU (Thermo Kinetc Unit) The standard Kermac Weapon. the Line Blaster fires thermic energies only. The latest development are FTL DE cannons (TL 8 and higher). Weapon Beams are fired through trans spatial tunnels to be faster than light and thus able to be used against space ship targets.
