A Vorlon planetkiller is a superweapon capable of destroying entire planets.
The Vorlons began to use them against planets which had been "touched" in any way by the Shadows during the Second Shadow war. [1]Being immensely powerful like all Vorlon technology, this ship was only destroyed by the combined power of all the remaining First Ones. [2]
These vessels were enormous measuring several miles across.
Notes
- It's unknown exactly how many of these vessels the Vorlons possessed, although there must have been at least two of them, as one was seen in orbit of Centauri Prime while another was destroyed at Coriana VI.
