The Railgun I represents a new stage in the production of ballistic weapons attributable to the retirement of gunpowder. Projectiles are now accelerated along a modified barrel by a set of precisely arranged, high powered electro-magnets. This new technology has greatly increased projectile velocity and thus, also range and firepower. The downside of this weapon is its high energy consumption.
