Isokinetic
Cannon
The
isokinetic cannon is a powerful weapons system developed by a species native
to the Delta quadrant. Designed to penetrate heavy shielding and inflict
serious damage with a single shot, the
isokinetic
cannon was purchased by the USS Voyager in exchange for 125 isolinear computer
chips.
The
cannon was installed on board Voyager for a test firing; despite a successful
test, a subsequent misunderstanding occurred in which the manufacturer
of the device was killed before it could be integrated into Voyagers tactical
systems.
Despite
this tragedy, Voyager retained the cannon and has since managed to fully
intergrate it with
the
shielding and targeting systems. The cannon presently remains in use on
board the ship.
