Ground Weapons
From The StarCraft 2 Wiki
Ground Weapons is an upgrade that is available for the Protoss that enhances the damage output of all ground walking units that are built from the Gateway and Robotics Facility. It is researched from the Forge and, like all weapon and armor upgrades, it has a research time that is noticeably longer than the units build duration.
