The Honorverse refers to a series of military science fiction Novels by David Weber.
Honorverse technology
Honorverse drive technology is somewhat unusual, using artificial gravity fields known as Impeller Wedges for acceleration. Said Drives create an effectively impenetrable field above and below the craft. They can also protect the sides of their ship using sidewalls, less robust versions of the Impeller Wedge able to destroy any matter which comes through it and disrupts directed energy (such as energy beams) to a lesser degree.
The primary spacecraft weapons of the Honorverse are Grasers and missiles equipped with X-Ray Pumped warheads launched in massive salvos.
