Laser Gattlings
WAMD System
Laser Gattlings- An idea without a platform for trial (and thus slammed onto the Silo, for an impromptu feild test), the laser gattling is a multiple barreled (5) laser cannon, which wraps its barrel around a tight axsis. A constant stream laser is firied from an upper portal, and the 5 barrels spin around this constant stream, chopping the chots up into dozens of smaller beams. Coollant valves expose to the vaccum of space to allow heat to radiate out, and allow the constant stream firing almost indefinatly, for a period of about 10 minutes, at which time it must shut down a minute to prevent overload. The gun is mounted in a swivel turret with 180 degree rotation from the hull of station.
WAMD System - A innovative idea, the WAMD (Wide Area Mine Dispersal) system is designed to be used in either hopless situations or when a Silo is under heavy attack. The WAMD uses a system of vents and tunnels that lead out from the station's multiple vaults (and a network of compressed air and electromagnets) to fling the entire innards (all its mines) in a random "explosion." The mines are flung off in a radius of undeterminable strenght, depending on how long and how much pressure is built up in the process. Takes on post to initate secquence, a second for it to activate.
Description:
Designed to be used in junction with Invilligo Minelayer corvettes, Silo stations hold up tp 50,000 mines in heavily reinforced vaults, as well as holding spare munitions that can be loaded into bombers or loaded into tenders and ferried to capital ships. A docking bay on the underside of the station can hold up to 3 squadrons at a time, where minor repairs can be made, and ordanace can be loaded up. Although on occasion, a starfighter squadron or two is loaded ino the hanger for defense, it is usually only a temporary meausure, to be used in a time of war in the face of an imminent attack. However its main purpose is to store extra mines to be distributed to minelayer corvettes.
