 Prerequisites: Weapon Upgrades V; Gunnery II
 V required for: Doomsday Operation; Marauders; Tactical Weapon Reconfiguration
 Notes: Note that this skill also applies to missile launchers (rockets / missiles / cruise missiles / torpedoes) and not just guns. Weapon Upgrades V is a long prerequisite, but the cumulative effect of WU V and AWU to IV really makes a difference to fitting, especially when you start encountering the greater fitting demands of T2 equipment.



Capacitor Emission Systems
