The NDPT-4205 Point Defence Turret is a hidden weapon, requiring a license to purchase. It's a small point-defence railgun with automatic targeting.

Acquisition

To acquire, you need to first become aware of the license's existence. There's a chance a miner asked if they've seen any trade opportunities will reveal this. Alternatively, a miner who you've given money to may give you a hint about the existence of the license as repayment.

After that, inquire about the license at an Obonto Habitat.

Description

A small semi-autonomous ship and station defence railgun capable of fracturing both incoming asteroids and hostile ships. The governing AI will pick targets, adjust aim, coordinate firing solutions across multiple systems and prime the rails. However, humans are still required to pull the trigger and fire, thus circumventing the Sofia Treaty on Sentient and Semi-sentient weaponry provisions.
