The Impulse Drive is based on the recoil principle, with the exhaust mass largely arising as a byproduct of the nuclear fusion used to generate energy. Additional mass can also be injected. Further development of this drive makes the following ships 20% of their base value faster per level: Bomber, Cruiser, Heavy Fighter and Colony Ship. Interplanetary missiles can fly further per level.
