Line 6:

Due to the similarities between the cannon and the [[Plasma Accelerator]], the cannon is a good weapon for people who cannot afford an 834k accelerator. Cannon ammunition is 20 credits per shot, which is 1/10th that of the Plasma Accelerator's.

The cannon is currently available in all three forms of fixed, gimballed and turreted versions. Notably, this is the only weapon in the game that's available in all four sizes, from small to huge. The projectile velocity for cannons is much slower than for [[Multi-cannon|multi-cannons]] ~~and, for reasons unknown, noticeably slower than the plasma accelerator~~.

~~Projectile speed is:~~

Fixed, Gimbal or Turret does not affect projectile speed.

~~~860m/s small cannon~~

~~~610m/s medium cannon ~735m/s medium plasma~~

~~~500m/s large cannon ~806m/s large plasma~~

~~~390m/s huge cannon ~670m/s huge plasma~~

~~Note that the large plasma is for unknown reasons faster than the medium.~~ Fixed, Gimbal or Turret does not affect projectile speed.
