Photon
Mortar |
The Photon Mortar fires rounds
similar to the Photon Grenade, only larger.
and for longer distances. The Photon Mortar
is operated two man teams. One man carries
the mortar on a back mount, the other additional
mortar shells, and the base, allowing both
men to carry rifles.
The round is loaded dropped into the muzzle,
and a magnetic pulse launches it. The pulse
can also can also impart spin, allowing for
indirect fire in microgravity environments.
While worn, the Mortar can be fired for a
range up to 1 mile/1.6 km. fully assembled
it's effective range is raised to 3 miles/4.8
km.
STATISTICAL INFORMATION:
1. Width: 4 in/101 mm
Base: 12 in/ 304/mm
2. Length: 36 in/ 914 mm
Base: 18 in/ 457
3. Weight: 15 lbs/9 kg
Base is 5lbs/2.2 kg
Total energy reserve: 4 hours of sustained
firing before power pack must be replaced.
FIRING MODES:
Single shot.. Round is entered into
breach, and fired. A skilled team can sustain
an accurate fire of 16 shells per minute.
MORTAR SHELL INFORMATION
1. Diameter: 81mm~3.1 inch
2. Height: 157mm~6.2 inch
3. Weight: .375 grams ~13.2 oz.
Power settings: Shell can be set to settings
1-16, with roughly twice the radius of a standard
photon grenade.
Total energy reserve: 4.0x10^6 megajoulles.
TARGETING
Team can either use the sight, or information
from the Pallas Helmet/Taccorders.
MAINTENANCE:
Magnetic field integrity maintenance should
be undertaken after sustained firing or disuse.
