Kinetic weapons were designed for acceleration of various individual unguided projectiles. Kinetic weapons were the most common type of weaponry used on military starships. Thanks to various systems, kinetic weapons could be weak, rapid-fire guns, as it was on the Vaygr Assault Craft, or powerful guns with long refire delay, such as the guns on a Taiidan Destroyer. Kinetic weapons could have also special ammunition. For example, Flak Frigate guns fired flak ammunition, which when exploded could damage several strike craft at once. The Trinity Cannon mounted on the bow of the Battlecruiser is a type of Mass Driver, but is more of a 'Rail Gun' because the projectile was energized with plasma.
