=====''Fighting Thunder ME-02''===== The default ship in the game, the ''Fighting Thunder ME-02'' is capable of using the following assortment of weapons. Each one can power up to a maximum level of 5. The choice for the purple powerup must be made at the start of the game. ======<font color=red>Red Powerup:</font> Vulcan====== A traditional spread weapon that shoots streams of 2 to 4 small yellow bullets in 3, 5, or 7 directions (including straight ahead). Powerups increase the spread of the number of bullets but decrease the damage each bullet can inflict (which is offset by the increased number of bullets fired with each shot). ======<font color=blue>Blue Powerup:</font> Laser====== A traditional narrow weapon, appearing as a single continuous forward-facing blue laser; lateral ship movement makes it swerve very slightly. Powerups increase both the width of the beam and the damage rate. ======<font color=violet>Purple Powerup, Option One:</font> Plasma Laser====== The "toothpaste" plasma laser from ''Raiden II'' and ''Raiden DX'' returns. Appears as a narrow purple beam that can swing in an arc from left to right. Once the beam strikes a target it will lock on and curve itself—sometimes very wildly—to stay on target. The beam will also damage any enemies that happen to be caught in its path to the target. Should the target be destroyed, the beam straightens out and the process repeats for a new target. ======<font color=violet>Purple Powerup, Option Two:</font> Proton Laser====== Improved from its original incarnation in ''Raiden III'', appears as three narrow purple beams with green outlines that swing markedly (up to about 45 degrees) with lateral ship movement. Powerups increase the width and brightness of the beam and presumably the damage rate. One of two weapons that can be assigned to the purple powerup at the start of the game.
