==Description==&lt;br /&gt;
===Blue Planet Tech Room Description===&lt;br /&gt;
The mass driver variant of the Varunastra gun is the short-range, brute-force element of the UEF&amp;#039;s direct-fire warship weapons systems. Firing explosive-tipped ceramic rounds, the Varunastra-A can inflict punishing damage to corvettes and destroyers alike. Although Karuna frigates can snipe at range with their gauss cannons, they must close in to the 4-kilometer range of the mass driver to decisively conclude the engagement. Jovian engineers at Stormrider Systems built this weapon in concert with Earth-based Consolidated Material Dynamics more than fifteen years ago.&lt;br /&gt;
