SPECIAL FEATURES

• 'Smart' biotech allows close tracking of enemy targets
• Razorgrass-based rounds slice through enemy armor with relative ease, providing deadly fire at most ranges
• Designed for 'retrieval' by pulling the bullet back into a magazine, to penetrate in the other direction.
• Fully compatible with Sylva Vitae biotech and biosuite

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Classification: 'Smart' slug
• Size: Small
• Weight: Light
• Explosive Type: N/A
• Delivery Method: Fired
• Effective Range: Battlefield (50-400 m)
• Area Of Effect: Pinpoint
• Damage Output: Very High

STRENGTHS

• Tracking rounds seek enemies regardless of cover or concealment
• Aerodynamic design allows for long range fire as well as close-in fire, though this round is designed particularly for more short-range application
• Quasi-ballistic design allows for long-range engagement by 'floating' across the air or through space
• Organic design allows this to evade most detection methods

WEAKNESSES

• Tracking rounds require threat marking first, otherwise they are quasi-ballistic and do not track targets.
• Organic design is less durable than a durasteel-based design
• Organic slugs do not have the 'punch' of contemporary armaments, and they are weaker to armor as a result
• Increased complexity of design compared to the standard TTSR round makes it more difficult to manufacture

DESCRIPTION
The TTSAPR is designed to work in tandem with Sylva Vitae's Threat Marking systems; an upgraded version of the TTSR round capable of course correction mid-flight, it is able to track and hit marked targets regardless of cover or concealment. With a 35 meter turning radius (or greater), it is able to hit marked targets behind cover (with a minimum range). It is also capable of hitting targets at great range that may have moved from initial locations.

Its secondary ability is to fire backwards and reload into an appropriate weapon. By being recalled into the weapon it was fired from, it is able to rip through the back of targets that may not have been expecting fire from that direction. Reloading itself into the weapon, up through the bottom of the magazine, it is once again able to be fired as needed.

The round is lethal immediately upon exiting the barrel of the weapon. By spinning, the round can remain stable in flight and use the air to 'float' to its designated target or to use the Force to guide itself through a vacuum. By adjusting its control surfaces mid-flight, the TTSAPR can land hits against marked targets at most ranges. Its sharpened edges allow it to remain comparable to standard slugthrower rounds, though it loses some penetration power due to its lighter mass.
