OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To create a multipurpose, multiplacement missile and torpedo launcher
- Image Source: [X]
- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: N/A
- Manufacturer: Nargath Holdings
- Affiliation: Closed-Market
- Model: NZ RTL1
- Modularity: It's ammunition can be swapped out for any conventional projectile and any in house designed missile and projectile of the same company.
- Production: Mass-Produced
- Material: Reinforced Ersteel 145 frame and plating, Duraplast shell, Doonium base, Reinforced impervium barrels
- Classification: missile launcher
- Size: Large
- Weight: Heavy
- Ammunition Type: Any type of conventional projectile and any in house designed missiles [connor nets, concussion missiles, proton torpedoes, high yield torpedoes, NZ RP-1CM cluster missile, etc]
- Ammunition Capacity: Average
- Effective Range: Long Range
- Rate of Fire: Average
- Stopping Power: High [the weapon itself does not provide the actual stopping power, but will depend on the projectile used, in case of no sub being used for a particular projectile, use this weapon's base rating as the rating to determine stopping power by.]
- Recoil: Average
- Built in laser targeting system
- Rotating base of up to 360 degrees
- Anti jam and anti lock system
- Internal cooling system
- Shock absorbing mount
- Varied use: The NZ RTL1 is designed to be able to utilize any and all conventional torpedoes and missiles and has been designed to set the limitations to every in house design regarding projectiles and explosives to allow for it to carry the multipurpose moniker.
- Safety Systems: With a variety of built in safety systems such as anti lock and anti jam meassures, shock absorbing braces to lower the recoil and increase accuracy and an internal cooling system to avoid overheating all ensure the longevity of this product, it's ease of use and its general reliability.
- Generalist: Designed not to be the most powerful or most impressive, but to be the standard to be compared with, this weapon in reality has no faults or flaws whatsoever to it's actual use and reliability, making this a dependable weapon placement from the best trained soldier to the most inexperienced rebel.
- Quite heavy: As is to be expected from a missile launcher capable of launching up to twenty projectiles at once, to accomodate for such a fact, it has been built with sturdy, but thus also heavy materials, which accumulates and translates into the placement's actual overall weight being rather on the heavy side.
- Quite large: You won't be seeing this on some lightweight vehicle or starfighter due to both it's weight and size it won't fit on anything smaller than a heavy tank or ships and vehicles of comparable size and weight.
The NZ RTL1 was an in house design which came along around the same time as the design for the NZ RP-1CM cluster missile as to test the latter, the engineers of the Nargath Holdings department of the N&Z umbrella corporation needed a suitable mount and launcher, which after using several variations from other companies had been fully designed to be used as a test mule for any of the company's own projectile, missile and torpedo designs. However, after some deliberation, it was decided that perhaps rather than just being a test mule, the one off missile launcher could actually be slightly improved and be put into production to fill up yet another gap which had been discovered within the company's ever expanding line up of vehicle and ship based weaponry.
