X4700 Ion Thruster

The X4700 Ion Thruster was developed when the Republic Navy began building warships so large that the X3700 was not sufficient for them. It allows even a capital ship to move at a respectable speed.

Ion engines consume less energy than plasma engines and produce less heat, but they also take up more space for the same amount of thrust.
