Elite Dangerous: Plasma accelerator vs Cannon round speed
Different projectiles travel at different speed - higher the class slower the speed will be, but which weapon is faster, Cannon or Plasma Accelerator? This is a test to see at what velocity different class Cannon and Plasma Accelerator projectiles travel and to compare them between both weapons.
Gimbaled variant has same velocity as fixed even while it deals less damage and from this test you can clearly see why Cannons are now so bad against most ships - their velocity is just awful even compared to Huge Plasma Accelerator
In this table you can see average speed calculated from the moment projectile left weapons barrel till the moment it hit targets shield.
