Ion turrets are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Minimum block count: 13500 for Cruisers

They can be fired much like any other heavy weapon, however they require the player to select the weaponset assigned to the missiles and perform /targetposition [x] [y] [z]. They are best used to assault area-shielded structures such as ground bases, stations, and BDPs. A node sign can be placed on the note block. Consumes 1 Arsenal Missile per shot.
