Editing Weapons in Star Trek (section)

==Other weapons==

===Magnetometric guided charges===
Around Stardate 43995, the Borg used this weapon to drive the USS ''Enterprise'', NCC-1701-D, from the Paulson Nebula. This shortly leads to the abduction of Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

===Multikinetic neutronic mines===
During Season 4, Episode 1 of ''Star Trek: Voyager'', [[Kathryn Janeway|Captain Janeway]] consults with Borg representative Seven of Nine on how to destroy [[Species 8472]]. Janeway calls Seven of Nine's "multikinetic neutronic mine" a "weapon of mass destruction," following up on a statement from [[Tuvok]] that it would affect an entire starsystem, destroying innocent worlds. The mine's five-million isoton yield can disperse Borg nanoprobes across a five-light year range.

===Dreadnought===
Dreadnought was a Cardassian self-guided missile, containing one thousand kilograms of matter, and another thousand of antimatter. Tuvok describes this as enough to destroy a small moon. Although described as a self-guided missile, in practice Dreadnought functions much like an autonomous starship, and it even had life support capability on board. It possesses shields, phasers, a complement of quantum torpedoes, a Thoron shock emitter, a plasma wave weapon, engines capable of reaching at least Warp 9, and a sophisticated computer AI. It appears in the ''Voyager'' [[Dreadnought (Star Trek: Voyager)|episode of the same name]]. It had been captured by the [[Maquis (Star Trek)|Maquis]] due to a failed detonator and reprogrammed to attack its original creator. It was dragged into the Delta Quadrant in much the same manner as ''Voyager'', and when unable to resolve the unforeseen situation it locked on to a planet that was similar to the one it was programmed to target, but which was inhabited by innocents. Dreadnought was equipped with an exceptionally sophisticated artificial intelligence, capable of "paranoia" to a certain degree, as when reprogrammer B'Elanna Torres attempted to prevent it from destroying the innocent planet, it came to the conclusion that she had been captured by her Cardassian enemies and forced to make up a story to prevent the attack; it then ''pretended'' to follow her commands and shut down, only to re-activate and continue its mission once she was no longer aboard.

===Series 5 long range tactical armor unit===
Similar in purpose to the Cardassian Dreadnought, the Tactical Armor Units are self-guided missiles with sophisticated artificial intelligence. They are much smaller than Dreadnought, being only a few feet in length, and while nowhere near as powerful, they are nonetheless classified as weapons of mass destruction, capable of destroying everything in a 200-kilometer radius with a highly focused antimatter explosion. Their coordination and control is done through a "Strategic Command Matrix", analogous to a nuclear control network of the type used by the United States. Each one possesses shielding, warp drive of indeterminate speed, and a sentient, [[genius]]-level [[artificial intelligence]] programmed to do whatever is necessary to reach their targets and detonate. They can detect and prevent tampering, are intelligent enough to find a way past almost any obstacle, and can win engagements even when outnumbered. They were created by a Delta Quadrant race called the Druoda, and the devices were greatly feared for their endurance and tenacity.<ref>{{cite episode| episode-link=Warhead (Star Trek: Voyager)| title=Warhead| series=Star Trek: Voyager}}</ref>

===Q firearms===
Q firearms were used in the Q Civil War by the ''Voyager'' crew to compensate against the infinite power of the Q in "[[The Q and the Grey]]". They are depicted as muzzle-loading muskets, to fit with the American Civil War-theme used by the Q Continuum as a concession to the human characters' limited perceptions. Presumably, their actual form would be as incomprehensible to non-Q as the Continuum itself. The use of the weapons caused stars to go supernova as a side effect in normal reality. They are arguably the most powerful weapons ever wielded by any humanoid species, as indicated by their ability to injure the otherwise-invulnerable Q.

===Red matter===
In the 2009 ''[[Star Trek (2009 film)|Star Trek]]'' reboot, red matter was developed on [[Vulcan (Star Trek planet)#Homeworld|Vulcan]] before 2387. When even a droplet is ignited an unstable [[Gravitational singularity|singularity]] is formed; accordingly, it must be stored in a protective chamber. The red matter was originally to be used to save the Romulan homeworld from a volatile [[supernova]], but the design was finished too late to prevent Romulus' destruction. Upon capture in the "past" (2258) by the Romulan Nero, it was used as a planet-destroying [[doomsday weapon]] in conjunction with a plasma drill which bored a hole almost to the core of a planet. A small amount of red matter was then activated at the bottom of the drilling site, creating a black hole in the heart of the planet that would tear it apart from within. Red matter was thus used to destroy an alternate Vulcan ("alternate" due to temporal disruption, from Nero's haphazard method of time travel), then ultimately destroyed Nero's ship, the ''Narada'', along with all remaining technology from his ship, and all of the remaining red matter.

===Psionic resonator===
A psionic resonator was a weapon that functioned by amplifying telepathic energy and focusing it into kinetic form. In 2369 one type of Vulcan psionic resonator, known as the Stone of Gol was discovered to still exist, though in pieces, long after it was thought destroyed. The mercenary Arctus Baran was hired to locate the pieces and deliver them to the Vulcan Isolationist Movement.<ref>{{cite episode| episode-link=Gambit (Star Trek: The Next Generation)| title=Gambit| series=Star Trek: The Next Generation}}</ref>
