Light Compound Blasters, also known as Light Blasters, are low-damage, unguided photon-magnetic weapon units commonly used in Federation space. Like all blasters, the Light Compound Blaster is a member of the Pyrogenesis Compound Blaster family, with variants such as the ubiquitous Medium Blaster, the powerful Heavy Blaster, and various turreted weapon models. Light Blasters use magnetic containment bottles to concentrate photon packets prior to release, allowing the weapon to create a fairly powerful kinetic impulse given its small power and size requirements. Because of this, blasters are typically more effective against shields than armor. Designed for small craft, Light Blasters are small and affordable, making them an ideal choice for placement on fighters such as the Federation Viper

Designed for small craft, Light Blasters are small and affordable, making them an ideal choice for placement on fighters such as the Federation Viper. Also, light transports and freighters often are equipped with a light blaster or two for basic defense; see such models as the Sigma Shipyards Alpha-class shuttle and the Sigma Shipyards Epsilon-class Heavy Shuttle.
