I know it's old but to the lone tenno that stated that all plasma weapons should have same travel time this is incorrect. Plasma is any super heated IONISED (polarized and this is key) gas. to "fire and not simply spray a flaming gas requires a Gauss effect (also known as rail gun tech) If you look at the front of Dera one can assume that that is the gauss assembly (set of electro-magnets that would be of reverse polarity) to propel it forward. The charge (power) of the magnetic assembly as well as length determens the projectile speed. It would also explain why there is no clip exchange during reload as these magnets must be cooled to prevent the Gauss assembly from melting.
