Technology in the BSG Original series and Buck Rogers seems fairly simple.

Lasers and
missiles/torpedoes and bombs are the used armaments.

Battlestar Galactica Technologies:

Turbo-Laser Turret: A laser weapon used for anti-fighter and anti-capital work.

Nutron Cased Laser Torpedoes: These seem very similar to Solonite missiles.

Solonite Missiles: Non-nuclear missiles used by the Colonials.

Pulsar Cannons: A massive laser cannon utilized to attack planets.

Laser Torpedo Guns: These are used by fighters.

Solonite Bombs: Anti-planet bombs.

Lightspeed Drive: The FTL used in Battlestar Galactica. Unlike Babylon 5 FTL, it cannot be
used as a weapon.

Radiation Field: An energy shield. It can only defend against laser attacks.

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Technologies

Plasma Drive: The FTL used in Buck Rogers. Unlike Babylon 5 FTL, it cannot be used as a
weapon.

Pulsar Cannons: In Buck Rogers these seem equivalent to Turbo-lasers and laser torpedo guns.

Draconian Bombs, Nerve Gas Bombs, EDD Bombs, Zaad Bombs: Self-Explanatory.
