The Gorn military, though not as strong as many of the other empires in the [[Ithassa Region]], they are nothing to under estimated.

=== New Era Ships === | |||
With the advent of LCARS technology among the Gorn, the Imperial shipyards began to design and implement a new style of ship. It was easier to begin from scratch then try to replace the systems aboard their old ships. These New Era ships went in to mass production. | |||

=== Ship Weapons === | |||
The Gorn Hegemony have spent most of their existence utilizing the Plasma Torpedo like the early Romulan Empire. These massive balls of plasma consumed much power, but their damage was impressive. | |||
Later the Gorns experimented with Photon Torpedoes when they were allied with the Federation and later disruptors purchased from the Klingons. | |||

The GGF is the backbone of the Gorn presence on the ground. Unlike Federation military, the Gorns do not have a distinctly separate Marine and Security contingent. All of their basic training is the same, it is simply the assignment of internal security or soldier. | |||
The GGF are heavily armored Gorns armed with standard issue plasma or disruptor rifles with issued armor. Feared by those who oppose them, the Gorn find it easier to secure a groud target than fighting in space. | |||
