Afterburners (AB) and microwarp drives (MWD) are the basic propulsion modules most | Afterburners (AB) and microwarp drives (MWD) are the basic propulsion modules most ships use. They both greatly increase ship's max velocity. Generally afterburners increase maximum speed by around 150% while microwarp drives increase maximum speed by around 500%. Disatvantages of microwarpdrives are high capacitor usage, additional penalty to capacitor capacity, they are shut down by warp scramblers and are generally harder to fit. | ||
There are different sizes of propulsion modules based on basic ship hull size. Using an undersized afterburner on a larger ship will cause the speed boost to become much smaller. | There are different sizes of propulsion modules based on basic ship hull size.
