The Torpedo Gun is the mobile variant of the Torpedo Platform. Like any other platform, you can use it to fortify crucial positions, even in deep space. The phaser gun has no flight range but can be transported by other ships, either by towing with a tractor beam or carrying in the hangar - however its high flight cost and high required hangar slots make moving a fleet of torpedo guns any more than a short distance logistically challenging. The main advantages of the torpedo gun are its relatively low build cost and excellent modularity - they can be converted quickly and with little to no resources to meet new strategic requirements.

In terms of firepower the torpedo gun can fire 1 torpedo each battle tick for one slot, this is equal to Darinayas and Adrecs and half the firepower per slot of the Torpedo Platform. However the torpedo platform is easier to kill than the Darinaya - as while it has slightly higher hull strength it has lower armour and no shields, as well as significantly lower evasion. This fact as well as the enhanced mobility of the Darinaya mean that torpedo guns are rarely used - with frigates and torpedo platforms being used instead.

The torpedo gun can either be built in an orbital shipyard, then moved to its required location, or be built by a tug in the location it is needed.

Overall the torpedo gun is a rarely used platform with only 5 existing on the EN1 server as of 28th June 2020 - generally torpedo platforms are preferred for static defenses, while darinayas and adrecs work just as well for mobile defense, without the logistical challenges of towing torpedo guns around.
