A variant of the Disruptor Beam, this weapon uses the same functional principals, but is engineered for use at long range.
Projecting something that is, in many respects, an extremely long sliver of a shield poses a number of technical difficulties. Long range disruptor beams increase the effective range of the weapon, but at the cost of dramatic reductions to efficiency, damage output, and beam stability alongside a significantly increased physical size. However, for certain applications, such as point-defense emplacements, these trade-offs have been considered more than worthwhile.
