Portal weapon

The portal weapon was a device that created a pair of wormhole-like portals within a short distance of each other. Anything that entered the first portal would emerge from the second, which appeared after a short delay and could be precisely aimed for tactical effect.

The Shrike used portals to prevent the Titan from escaping the Ryton Nebula, and later to send a volley of photon torpedoes fired by the Titan back at the Federation starship, disabling it. Vadic was subsequently ordered by her superior to pursue the Titan into the gravity well at the center of the nebula, which necessitated that she jettison the portal system. ()
