	<blockquote>“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.”</blockquote>Unlocked by working with the Obonto Habitats, this railgun turret can target in an approximately 100 degree cone. Although it’s less powerful than its fixed counterpart, it remains useful as both a mining and combat implement, especially on unwieldy ships, and can be considered a longer range alternative to the PDMWG.		<blockquote>“A small semi-autonomous ship and station defence railgun capable of fracturing both incoming asteroids and hostile ships.

SecruoseR: removed DPS columns, they're misleading given the damage mechanisms that actually matter in this game; we don't have health pools, components are critically damaged extremely quickly, and efficacy at ringroid shattering is up to far more variables than megajoule output alone.

	The railgun is the only good mass driver. if you are breaking rocks, energy weapons are a much better choice, and if you are breaking ships, the rail gun does it twice as well as any of the others. watch out for the high power usage though.
