Description
Beam Fire Controls are used to target beam and kinetic weapons. Fire Controls need an active sensor contact to lock up a target.
Usage
Beam Fire Controls are essential for using any kind of beams. A single FC can control any number of beam weapons. The accuracy of the FC drops linearly over its range, thus a FC with more range than the weapon it controls is still useful. For tracking speed however the lower of value of the FC and the weapon is used.
