Description

Basic Terran and Vasudan anti-fighter beam weapon

Veteran Comments

These beams can be very, very deadly, if they hit you they don't worry about your shields, they go right to your armor and subsystems. Even if the beam doesn't kill you, it can easily take out your subsystems.

This weapon is your worst nightmare. Even a single hit can do extreme damage to you, possibly kill you outright. Make note of AAA emplacements on NTF capital ships and stay the hell out of their firing arc.
