Railgun shooting speed increases the firing speed of the railgun and railgun turret.

Technology	Cost	Effects
1 Railgun shooting speed 1	60 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 X `1000*2^(Level-1)` (eg. 1000 for level 1, 2000 for level 2, 4000 for level 3)	20% per level

The railgun turret's shooting speed is limited by its animation, which means it can't shoot faster than 0.845 times per second (once per 71 ticks). This shooting speed is reached at level 10 and researching past that level will have no practical effect on the railgun turret, however it will continue to increase the shooting speed of the hand-held railgun.
