Plasma Gun

After decades of secret development, field testing of the first sustainable prototype has been a military disaster. Its inaccuracy and unreliability prevented plasma gun from being used widely throughout the battle fleet, as it has usually generated unacceptable amounts of collateral damage. Only few pilots can handle this dangerously unstable weapon and even fewer are willing to do so. You are one of them!

+ Arched trajectory of plasma gun projectiles covers almost entire visible area. + Great for "mining" asteroids on later levels. - Requires certain skill to actually hit anything.
