 Utilizing quantum mechanics, the ballistic accelerator is fit onto ships and weaponry to enhance the speed of projectile weapons considerably, and thus both damage and accuracy, giving the target enemy fleet less time to respond accordingly. However, due to the device's additional power requirements, the weapons enhanced by this device also suffer additional cooldown time.
