Antiproton Gun

Antiproton guns are the primary offensive energy weapon of large tactical ships: Pathfinders, Defenders, Battle Cruisers, Frigates, and Corvettes. The antiproton gun is essentially a massive quantum accelerator that draws energy from the quantum generator that supplies the ships power and initiates the production of a massive number of antiprotons; which are discharged from the front of the ship in a massive invisible death beam that explosively annihilates matter upon contact. The antiproton weapon is lethal within 4,000 kilometers of the target but most lethal in the first 14,000 meters. The Fast Attack Corvette was essentially designed around its antiproton gun, which runs the entire length of the ship. FAC and Frigate antiproton guns have the highest yield of any antiproton weaponry; 6,000 K'Booms at 10,000 meters. (Battle Cruisers are a close second at 5,000 K'Booms.)
