Maritimequest Bremen F 207 Page 1 Fires one beam that tears through the armor of enemy frigates or larger ships, while being relatively ineffective against hull. new design originating from nimbus, built around a taiidan ion cannon system. Every single ion cannon frigate captured in bridge of sighs.
Maritimequest Bremen F 207 Page 1 "this is a fleet of frigates; you have the ion beam frigate, which everyone remembers from homeworld, and the assault frigate, which is your… another workhorse of the frigate family. working in conjunction, the frigates make very effective anti frigate and anti capital ship groups. Ion frigates are equal to frigate in power and armour but hold two distinct advantages over them. first, they have 1 shield and second, 50% of their power passes right through shields. Ion array frigates are among the first ion cannon equipped ships to appear in the single player campaign. their ion cannons deal heavy damage quickly to slow targets, such as frigates or carriers, but they charge up slowly and are easily dodged by strike craft and corvettes. While this tactic can be devastatingly effective, it drastically lowers the survivability of the beam frigates and, despite numerous disciplinary charges against zealous captains, there seems to be no increase in caution amongst sajuuk cor crews.

The ion cannon frigate was a capital ship designed against other capital ships used by the kushan and taiidan empire in homeworld. the frigate is a simple design, basically the assault frigate with all the bulk around the central hull removed along with all the turrets. Currently the most advanced frigate in the hiigaran fleet, the "zevrani" class are equipped with cutting edge ion cannons. this makes them a deadly opponent at close range to anything that can't get out of the way quickly. Frigates are therefore often designated as capital ship escorts, protecting the larger vessels from enemy strike craft. however, on occasion frigates are used in a purely offensive nature, particularly ion cannon frigates. The hiigaran ion cannon frigate was an anti capital ship frigate, built around a massive ion cannon. it was very similar to the firelance class ion cannon frigate and was both cheap and powerful.
