| | STAR F CLASS |
| | | STAR F CLASS |
| A '''cannon''' is a projectile based weapon that fires a large calibre round very similar to a current day howitzer. It uses ammunition and therefore will need to be replenished every so often although your ship is capable of carrying a very large amount of reserve ammunition making restocking not a constant priority. The cannon fires explosive shots that detonate on impact, dealing considerable damage to the targeted subsystem and the systems around it.

| | | STAR F CLASS |
| 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.
| | STAR F CLASS |
| | | STAR F CLASS |
| The cannon is currently available in all three forms of fixed, gimballed and turreted versions. The projectile velocity for cannons is much slower than for [[Multi-cannon|multi-cannons]].
| | STAR F CLASS |
| | | STAR F CLASS |
| Fixed have the highest bullet speed, the bullet speed of turreted and gimballed is the same.

| ==Munitions==
| | STAR F CLASS |
| Spent ammunition must be replenished once used. Any station equipped with a "Re-arm" service will be able to replenish ammunition. Once docked at the station, ammunition can be purchased from the Munitions menu in the Starport Services.
