	A good multirole weapon that can serve fairly well as point defense, auxiliary anti-ship armament, and warhead intercept. With a respectable range, it can also be a modest anti-subsystem weapon as well, though the inherent inaccuracy of the weapon makes it somewhat inefficient at this. Against corvettes, frigates, and destroyers, its damage output ~~isn't huge~~, ~~but it's notable and~~ quite respectable in light of their general utility.

With a respectable range, it can also be a modest anti-subsystem weapon as well, though the inherent inaccuracy of the weapon makes it somewhat inefficient at this. Against corvettes, frigates, and destroyers, its damage output is better than many beam cannons, quite respectable in light of their general utility.

	At maximum range, this weapon will hit within a radius of 31.4 meters of its intended target, making it very dangerous to even fighters with larger profiles like the [[UEF Uriel]]. It will usually miss smaller fighters, but don't count on it, and even a couple of impacts from this are devastating to fighters. It's essentially a drop-in replacement for [[Heavy Flak]] on the new GTVA ships in BP, but with the added bonus of doing more damage to strike craft and significant damage to warships.}}		At maximum range, this weapon will hit within a radius of 31.4 meters of its intended target, making it very dangerous to even fighters with larger profiles like the [[UEF Uriel]].

	Using funding from the Threat Exigency Initiative, Morgan Technologies invested heavily into Sahr Corporation research on concatenated magnetic bottles. Ten years after Capella, this investment produced the pulse cannon, a radical improvement over older weapons like the Houndtooth. With vastly enhanced range and velocity, the Hellstar Pulse Cannon fires heavy plasma pulses out to 2.4 kilometers, giving modern warships - including the Raynor-class destroyer - a third heavy weapons system to ~~compliment~~ beam weapons and torpedoes. Potent against both shields and hull, the Type 1 Hellstar can smash fighters in a few hits and deal serious damage to warship targets. Sahr Corporation scientists are still attempting to lock down the magnetic bubble to improve the weapon's accuracy.
