OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
  • Intent: To create a man-portable Class-D disruptor cannon for Breshig War Forge Consolidated, Strill Securities, Mandalorians and select others.
  • Image Source: Here.
  • Canon Link: N/A.
  • Permissions: N/A.
  • Primary Source: RCDC-01 Repeating Class-D Disruptor Cannon.
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Class-D Disruptor Cannon.
  • Size: Very Large.
  • Weight: Very Heavy.
  • Ammunition Type: Gas cartridge-power cell combined unit.
  • Ammunition Capacity:
    • Rapid Fire setting: Average (20 shots).
    • Standard setting: Small (10 shots).
  • Effective Range:
    • Rapid Fire setting: Long Range.
    • Standard setting: Extreme.
  • Rate of Fire:
    • Rapid Fire setting: High.
    • Standard setting: Average.
  • Stopping Power: Extreme.
  • Recoil: Average.
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Integrated Bipod: In order to brace the heavy weapon to take some of the weight off the shooter's hands, it features an integrated bipod.
  • Integrated Gyro-gimbal: In order to better balance the weapon both before and after firing a shot, a gyro-gimbal was integrated into it.
  • Integrated Barrel Cryo Cooling Lattice: A Dallorian alloy barrel alone isn't enough to keep the weapon from overheating and damaging its barrel, so a cryo cooling lattice was integrated into its construction.
  • (Optional) Vibrosaw bayonet.
  • Rapid Fire mode fire modes:
    • Two-round burst.
    • Full Auto.
STRENGTHS
  • Class-D Disruptor: Class-D disruptors can cause the atomic deletion of their target, potentially breaking down the chemical bonds. Each shot is capable of doing immense amounts of damage on target, and has little regard for armor.
  • Long Range: The cannon's powerful bolts are capable of traveling great distances before they lose coherency.
  • High Velocity: Each bolt/pulse can travel the distance between weapon and target at a remarkable speed, fast enough even to make the most ardent Verpine Shatter Rifle fan look on impressed or in envy.
  • Accurate: The MCDC-01 is an accurate weapon out to its last range increment, making it suited for attacking subcomponents and hardpoints on enemy vehicles.
  • Resilient Frame: The weapon's armored frame allows it to take quite a beating. With a combat de-ionizer and reinforced duraplast reinforcements, the weapon is resistant to EMP/Ion damage to an extent.
WEAKNESSES
  • Unwieldy: The weapon's size and weight makes it difficult to maneuver for most humanoids, making it difficult to carry around, largely relegating it to use as a static weapon.
  • Awkward: Not the most comfortable weapon to fire, the MCDC-01 typically tends to be used from static positions as its awkward design makes it slow to fire while looking down the sight, though HUD linking optics do alleviate the issue to an extent. The weapon does not ship with such an optic.
  • Optic Mount: The optic mount is such that optics can be installed for right handed shooters or left handed shooters, but changing the position of the mount is something that can't be done on the battlefield lest there is a significant lull in battle.
  • Illegal: Disruptors are illegal on many worlds, but Class-D disruptors take that to a whole new level. It is unlikely that a Class-D disruptor would be viewed as a sign of someone not looking to start trouble even in space where it is legal. Which could lead to more than a few problems.
  • Immoral: The weapon is extremely immoral, given what it does to a target. Using this weapon will likely garner the wrong sort of attention. Perhaps even sign one's own death warrant.
  • Overheating: When confronted with extreme periods of sustained firing, the weapon's safety mechanisms will kick in and lock down the weapon to prevent permanent damage. Naturally, this is also dependant on atmospheric conditions.
  • EMP/Ion: When faced with a powerful enough EMP/Ion surge, it is possible that the weapon's defenses against aforementioned damage will be overwhelmed and the weapon's more sensitive components will be fried, preventing it from firing.
DESCRIPTION
Designed for use as a heavy infantry portable weapon, or as one of the two standard issue weapons for the Gar Verd Battle Droids manufactured by the company, the MCDC-01 was designed as a man-portable version of the RCDC-01. The main intention of the weapon was put give infantry the ability to engage enemy armor while not having to carry cumbersome ammunition. In the case of the Gar Verd battle droids, the intention of issuing the droids the weapon was to give them an adaptable weapon system that packs an intense punch to allow them to assist vehicles and also screen them against infantry of any kind wearing any sort of exotic armor.

Being a Class-D disruptor, the MCDC-01 can cause the atomic deletion of it's target, potentially breaking down the chemical bonds. Each shot is capable of doing immense amounts of damage on target, and has little regard for armor. The bolts fired by this weapon are capable of traveling a great distance at an extremely high velocity with a great degree of accuracy before losing energy and coherency.

The weapon's armored frame allows it to take quite a beating. With a combat de-ionizer and reinforced duraplast reinforcements, the weapon is resistant to EMP/Ion damage to an extent. Unfortunately, however, when faced with a powerful enough EMP/Ion surge, it is possible that the weapon's defenses against aforementioned damage will be overwhelmed and the weapon's more sensitive components will be fried, preventing it from firing.

The weapon's size and weight, however, makes it difficult to maneuver for most humanoids. The MCDC-01 typically tends to be used from static positions as its awkward design makes it slow to fire while looking down the sight, though HUD linking optics do alleviate the issue to an extent. When confronted with extreme periods of sustained firing, the weapon's safety mechanisms will kick in and lock down the weapon to prevent permanent damage. Naturally, this is also dependant on atmospheric conditions. Finally, there are of course the usual ethical and legal concerns with using a Class-D disruptor weapon, or in fact, a disruptor weapon of any sort.
