540 kW 1.7mm "Boxer" Railgun

Simple design meant to beat armor. I am no serious designer at this game but through fiddling with numbers and trial and error I have produced a design I feel proud to share. This is my first up load so after the facts listed below I will tell a short story of how this design came to be.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Low power consumption, lowish weight, high speed projectile, long range, relatively low cost and high fire rate.
Muzzle velocity
Power: 540 kW
Caliber: 1.7mm
Cost: 140 kc at 54.6 mc/round
Weight: 4.26 tons
Ranges:
*Small (1m): 9.25km
*Medium (10m): 16.4km
*Capital (1000m): 52 km
Reload: 190 ms
Turning speed: 30.4 degrees/second

Overview: The "Boxer" Railgun system fires a lightweight projectile at an very fast velocity with a reload speed fast for railguns. The game's physics engine is more refined than I thought, and the maxim of "Speed beats armor" is what makes this weapon effective against not only missiles but even capital ships. It is not a hammer like the Autofire I compare it against, but a pinprick that will go right through armor at a reduced energy cost.

This is an outdated design. I have uploaded my newest design iterations.
