Type 1 Unified Theory Cannon

The Type 1 UTC works upon the principal that at high levels of energy, the universal forces begin to merge and become one. This weapon unifies electro-weak and strong nuclear forces at energies in excess of 100 Tera-Electron-Volts, forming Electro-Strong force. The photons used as carrier particles in this weapon, once passed through the electro-strong field, have the ability to interact with strong nuclear force, and thus are able to disrupt the bonds between quarks, shattering atoms and releasing extremely large explosions as a secondary effect. A hit from a UTC will generally carry around 120 Yottawatts of energy damage, but this obviously increases due to the secondary explosions which are comparable to those caused by an M-AM reaction.

A UTC will typically take 20 seconds to charge for each shot, which consists of a short, concentrated pulse of energy. This is essentially invisible, but leaves shimmering trails on occasion as it passes through pockets of interstellar hydrogen. Each of the UTCโ€™s is powered by it own Quantum Foam generator.

Location: Either side of the bow of the ship. Primary Purpose: Anti-capital ship. Secondary Purpose: Planetary bombardment. Damage: 8 Range: 6 AU (takes 50 minutes to reach destination). Payload Effectively infinite as long as the generators are activated. Rate of Fire: One pulse every 20 seconds.
