The Successors have a historical affinity for projectile weaponry which persists to the modern day. The Drag Cannon fires a short-ranged, highly inaccurate blast of projectiles that not only deal substantial damage but also temporarily disrupt the target's engines.
While it is an inelegant design in comparison to the time-tested Ojet Coilgun, and consequently less appreciated, the Drag Cannon has found a place on the Successors' fast attack craft primarily as a tool for slowing down enemy vessels so that they can be engaged by a larger fleet.
