There are 2 types of weapons; Energy-based and kinetic-based which carry ammunition. In addition there are also weapons used for defence such as the point defence turret. Weapons generate heat, which increases your signature on the radar. When you have more than 100% heat, you will not be able to fire (however, given that you would be overheating, you probably have other problems on your hands). | There are 2 types of weapons; Energy-based and kinetic-based which carry ammunition.
