Fusion beam

Fusion beams were fielded on starships of the Mirak Star League. Its power was derived from a stream of excited deuterium and tritium nuclei projected to the target. The nuclei were then fused into helium, releasing tremendous energy at the moment of contact. (' video game: ')

Although it could potentially deal a lot of damage, fusion beams had a major drawback: these weapons had a very short range. Additionnally, the Mirak fusion beam technology was quite crude, limiting their arcs. Also, finding a sufficient amount of both deuterium and tritium to fuse in order to fire the weapon was a logistical nightmare.


 * In the  video game fusion beams were attributed to the Hydrans, but in, they were attributed to the Mirak.
