(The intention of this thread is to build a long-range heavy hypervelocity cannon for mounting on a ship. This colossal weapon requires a dev thread, so here we are. The intent is 15-25 posts to show design, development and testing.)
The report of the battle of Alderaan continued to sit before the Admiral. He stared at it, unseeing, then rose.
His attempts to rebuild the Republic heavy warships had completed their first hurdle with the Avenger class, but he was already looking to a new type of ship. This ship would be the ultimate in space artillery, but to do that it needed a gun worthy of the name.
Hypervelocity cannons had just made the jump from ground to space weapons, and he wanted to go further.
With this in mind he had summoned all the military and fleet thinkers he could find to attend upon him so that his designs could be checked, prototyped and then put into action.
His baby, the Farstrike Cannon would be magnificent…if it could be built.
