Defiant-class blasters
« on: December 10, 2020, 01:11:56 pm »


The first time the second ship explodes, the blast has a radius of about 12 feet, or 4 meters. So the combined power of all four of the Defiant's cannons is about the same as 0.3 lb of TNT. [1] That's 140 grams, or 585760 joules. [2] A pretty reasonable figure: 35g per cannon.

Rating: 7/10
