Ion Cannon (orbitals Test Orbitals)

Effectively a gigantic powerplant strapped to an enormous, fragile tube of superconductors which have been wrapped into a polytoroidal synchrotron. Given sufficient charging time, it is capable of accelerating a cloud of ionized particles to energies in the 5.5- to 7.2-ZeV range.

When precisely targeted by properly-equipped ground forces, this platform can deliver devastating, high-precision space-to-ground artillery support.

Corporal, be advised, strike co-ordinates received, splash inbound. Please remain well clear of the blast zone...
