Gunnery Officer's Report
Plasma-bolt guns are new weapons, present only on a few fighter prototypes. These guns are only effective at short ranges and apply little damage. Don't take them lightly – the blasts use little power and can be fired indefinitely.

Plasma Gun. The Plasma gun was originally developed to attack heavy fighters and corvettes with light armor. It uses electrically charged hydrogen molecules that are in a state of near-fusion. These molecules are similar to those found in the inner plasma of most young stars. Upon impact, plasma projectiles cause radiation, blast and heat damage.
