Star Citizen - Ship Weapons Guide | New Pilot's Guide to the Verse

In Star Citizen, your ship's loadout is key to making all the difference in a dogfight. Join me as we take an extensive deep dive into the different ship weapons you can buy and install on your ships in-game.

UPDATE FOR 3.14
3.14 Brought some big changes to weapons. Most of the info here is still accurate, but some things have changed. Here are the most important things you should note:

-Ballistics are much more powerful, but their ammo capacity has been drastically reduced. Cannons have good ammo cap but are still limited.
-Laser weaponry now has an ammo capacity. They still have infinite ammo, but they will need to recharge between bursts of fire.
-Overclocking is gone. Instead, now all weapons fire much faster than before. Overclocking may return again at a later date according to CIG.
-Currently, the Attritions laser repeaters have had their damage fall off removed.

-Size 1-4 Repeaters are exclusively for anti-fighter roles.
-Size 5-7 Repeaters are exclusively for anti-multicrew / anti-capital ship roles.
-Size 1-4 Cannons are exclusively for anti-heavy fighter / anti-multicrew roles.
-Size 5-7 Cannons are exclusively for anti-multicrew / anti-capital ship roles.

-You can still use weapons outside of their roles, but it will be sub-optimal.
