- Different Canister Types
Dye Canister: Mark Terrain in a 15-meter diameter area with a bright neon blue fluorescent dye. - Smoke Canister: Obscure vision and mark terrain in a dense 15-meter diameter area. Comes in the colors: White, Black, and Blue.
- T-238 Canister: Containing Agent T-238 nerve gas, induces severe nausea and incapacitates targets within an effective 15-meter diameter area and a maximum 45-meter diameter area.
- Cryoban Canister: Freezes targets and incapacitates them in a 15-meter diameter area.
- Plank Gas Canister: Containing Plank Gas, delivers a highly corrosive gas in an effective 15-meter diameter area and a maximum 45-meter diameter area.
- Spore/B Canister: Containing black Bothan stun spores, incapacitates targets for hours or more with side effects of weakness and disorientation to unconsciousness and death, having an effective 15-meter diameter area and a maximum 45-meter diameter area.
- Fex-EX Canister: Containing Fex-EX nerve gas instead of standard Fex-M3, induces death to targets within an effective 15-meter diameter area.
- Concussion-Effect Canister: Standard munition which causes a 3-meter blast radius, unleashing a blast of kinetic that would kill most organics and damage equipment. A sonic shockwave was expelled in the explosion that shun anyone outside of the blast radius.
- Thermal Canister: Standard thermal detonator, with an internal thermite and axide shell and a baradium core, with an 9-meter blast radius.

Created and manufactured solely by Izanami Ironworks, the Kosenjobi-class Personal Projectile Launcher is the standard-issue anti-personnel weapon for the Inari Shogunate. Utilizing magnetic rings to propel each canister at a high velocity with minimal scattering, low-recoil and silent operation, built-in vibro balancing systems, coupled with an internal computerized firing system equipped with a target recognition system for increased accuracy, the Kosenjobi-class Personal Projectile Launcher is the prime choice of weapon among its class.
The Kosenjobi-class Personal Projectile Launcher also has an advanced compute system which allows the user to select canisters via an electronically automated system, thus, eliminating the requirement for the user to manual load the canisters that are necessary for a particular tactical setting. In addition, the computer system of the Personal Projectile Launcher automatically configures the detonation setting of the canister, calculating the precise timing of the canister or setting the canister to detonate upon impact depending on the range and target. The user, however, must change the range settings from short, medium and long, in order to effectively utilize the weapon's computer systems.
The Kosenjobi-class Personal Projectile Launcher can hold eight canisters in its magazine, as well as two canisters within the weapon itself. The standard-issue Kosenjobi-class Personal Projectile Launcher comes with 1 Dye Canister, 1 Smoke Canister, 2 Plank Gas Canisters, 2 Concussion Effect Canisters, and 4 Thermal Canisters; although the user is free to modify the canister fitout of the Personal Projectile Launcher according to the tactical setting in which the weapon is utilized.
