Type VIII Array

The Type VIII is the phaser armament of choice for most of Starfleet's small-to medium-sized ships.
While varying degrees of power and capabilities can be found from class to
class - even from ship to ship - the general Type VIII operating principles remain the same and
any deviations in any regard are usually negligible. This phaser type provides excellent
offensive and defensive capabilities for many ship classes that, due to their size, require significant
quantities of internal volume for other operations which would otherwise be consumed by
larger phaser weaponry.
