Each of the four kinds of turret has a selection of types of ammunition (using 'ammunition' loosely -- energy turrets load crystals). Ammunition comes in four sizes matching the four sizes of turret (S, M, L and XL).

Faction ammo is also available (for example, Republic Fleet Fusion S instead of normal Fusion S). Faction ammo is expensive but gives you more damage. Generally speaking it is useful in PvP but rarely cost-effective in PvE. There are 3 levels of faction ammo. In order of power, they are pirate, which deals 10% more damage, navy, which deals 15%, and elite pirate, which deals 20% more. Pirate and elite pirate ammo drop from rare spawns at dead space complexes, and navy ammo is available from various lp stores. Generally navy ammo is the cheapest, due to its ease of acquisition.

Tech 2 turrets can use Tech 2 ammo. Hybrid, Projectile, and Laser turrets each have four associated kinds of T2 ammo, two varieties of T2 ammo for T2 short-ranged turrets and two for Tech 2 long-ranged turrets. Using hybrid turrets as an example once again, T2 blasters can load:

Tech 2 Exotic Plasma can only be used with Tech 2 Entropic Disintegrators. Mystic offers the damage of Baryon with better range, while Occult offers a more close range option with more damage compared to Tetryon. Both Tech 2 exotic plasma types come with a 25% tracking speed penalty.
