Slipspace drives may also be used as improvised, if highly expensive, weapons of mass destruction. By momentarily generating an uncontrolled slipspace rupture within a kilometers-wide radius, the device forcibly transitions any matter in the affected area into slipspace.{{Ref/Reuse|reach}} Projections of the [[Insurrection]]'s escalation into a major war suggested that with unrestricted access to slipspace-capable craft, any hostile colony would turn them into weapons against [[Unified Earth Government|Earth]].<ref>'''Dr. Halsey's personal journal''', ''December 4, 2510''</ref>
