Description:
A more interesting product, developed jointly by Aurora Industries's Weapon Division and their Bioengineering Division, the AI-47h "Vigor" Rifle is based upon an old style of delivering vital healing to distant allies. Based on the concept from both Republic and Sith special forces, the AI-47h fires clear capsules filled with pressurized bacta to where an ally might be injured. These capsules, upon making contact with something or someone, shatter and release the bacta in a cloud of healing mist, roughly 2 meters, that can kick-start the healing of minor wounds.
This bacta mist affects all organics in its radius, whether it be ally or enemy, as a fair warning. The rifle is also completely useless in a combat situation as it cannot be configured to accept either slugs or blaster cartridges. A scope can also be added onto the rifle to allow for a more precise healing radius, and the scope also doubles as a life sign scanner as it can detect heartbeats for several hundred meters.
