Description
The Light Naval Particle Projector Cannon is designed to inflict a massive amount of energy and thermal damage to enemy WarShips. As it is so massive, the system has difficulty targeting enemy craft smaller than 500 tons. The Light NPPC offers good range and damage potential for its cost, which explains why it is so popular with WarShip designers.[2]
