Blasters

A recent development has been the use of Astrium-126 to accelerate neutrons, producing a tighter, more powerful beam. Though on paper, these are referred to as 'tight-beam neutron accelerators', most navies refer to them as Blasters. Of particular note: blasters have much shorter barrels than other weapons, and blasters of greater volume can be installed in turrets as a result. Blasters count as only half their volume when the size limits of turreted weapons are considered. They still occupy their listed volume for every other purpose. Because they are still very new, they have not yet been built in superscalar sizes.
