Line 6:

Weapons usually consist of a ship module that serves as a weapons platform and ammunition that is expended as the platform fires.

There are ~~four~~ generic weapons module types in EVE: launchers, turrets, e-war ~~and counter measures~~.

There are three generic weapons module types in EVE: launchers, turrets, and e-war.

*[[Missile Launchers|Launchers]] fire self-propelled ammunition that hones in on its target and causes damage when it arrives. Launchers further break down into

**Rockets: short range, any damage type

Line 15:

**Hybrid: charged particles, two kinds of damage

**Projectile: projectiles, any damage type

*[[Electronic Warfare|Electionic warfare]] (e-war) weapons operate by reducing the fighting capacity of the target. ~~These weapons do not always use ammunition.~~

*[[Electronic Warfare|Electionic warfare]] (e-war) weapons operate by reducing the fighting capacity of the target. They use a wide variety of modular fittings and have multiple, unique characteristics.

*[[Electronic_Countermeasures|Electronic countermeasures]] are defensive weapons that act to reduce the fighting capacity of the attacking ship. These weapons do not always use ammunition.

~~E-war and electronic countermeasures~~ use a wide variety of modular fittings and have multiple, unique characteristics.

ECM "jammers" are used to disrupt the targeting apparatus of the target ship. Although ECM are a form of electronic warfare, they are often though of as separate, probably because they have a distinctly defensive aspect.
