    How does an ion cannon work? Is it just a big power surge or something else? Many thanks

    An ion cannon is any type of particle cannon which uses a huge turbine to generate a large negative ion pulse. The ions contained in the pulse render computers and other delicate electronics useless.

    Fires blasts of ionized energy. Causes massive disruption in wepaon, enginer, and computer systems aboard a target. Disables a starship defenses against tractor beams.

    I think this question would be more suited for the SW Misc. forum... :)
