Description

Wings of Dawn Tech Room Description

The 40mm 'Reaper' cannon was a common low tech weapon mounted on fighters and capital ships from NC0000 until they were slowly phased out around NC0051. It remained popular after the introduction of shielded fighters because early shield systems could handle Kinetic weapons poorly. It had the advantage of a long range but only had limited ammo.
