OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Designed as an advanced model of the whammy drive.. the newer model is largely improved in both its design and function. With the predator style engines having ultra capacitors that can aid in recharging and improving the energy output making the interdicition field stronger as opposeed to the previous model with a pulse. Now it will make a sustained field for at full power ninety seconds with a gravity well that can throw other shields off course in accordance to the mass of the ship itself. (the more weight the more pulled in) So while a fighter could mess with another fighter it isn't going to be moving around starships but it can trip their hyperdrive safeties that would force a recalculation of the computer. Then there is the SLAM drive built into it that can be charged up and used for short bursts of around ten seconds to double the speed at the cost of ability to turn as that can tear the engines from the structure of the ship.
- Intent: To make an advanced and updated version of the whammy drive

- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: My Subs
- Primary Source:
- Manufacturer: Saotome Foundry
- Affiliation: Closed-Market
- Model: Advanced Whammy Drive
- Modularity: Able to be installed and scaled for fighters or ships
- Production: Mass-Produced
- Material:
- Advanced Engines designed as a predator with a slam system installed for reducing space taken up.
- Predator interdiction System: Designed with an interdicition system like the predator. The field created is roughly 1.5 times the length of the ship using the engine.
- Built in SLAM drive: Designed with a slam accelerator to double the speed of the ship for a short amount of time. It isn't going to make a bomber beat an interceptor but it will let it deliver its payload and bug out.
- Maneuverability: While the SLAM is great for acceleration it is horriblkke for turning with the smaller ships. Sharp turns can tear the superstructure of the ship.
- Explosive: The ultracapacitors are designed to augment and improve the power in the engines to make the iterdiciton bubble created and the slam both recharge faster but it can if damaged explode leading to heavy damage to the engines.
