Babylon 5 Phasing Pulse Cannon

Phasing Pulse Cannon
Dominant Faction: Shadows
Description: The weapon used by Shadow scout vessels, the phasing pulse cannon is a souped-up version of the polarity cannon. It fires distinctive pulses of molecular energy capable of shearing layers off a ship in rapid succession by weakening armor and then repeatedly slamming pulse after pulse into the same area.

President Clark had fitted larger versions of the phasing pulse cannons to his Omega-Xs, boosting their range significantly but not succeeding in increasing their damage potential at all. These weapons were very effective in comparison to their predecessors but not according to the researchers – who wanted a great deal more out of them.
