SPECIAL FEATURES
The second weapon system designed for Aurora Industries' Aeon Program, the AI-T5 "Ifrit" Turbolaser takes design ideas and inspiration from each of the company's previous turbolaser offerings, utilizing the new Ramuh-II power core and Sianteria to power such various abilities. The standard loadout of the Ifrit is similar in design to its immediate predecessor, the Salamand, acting as a significantly stronger turbolaser with impressive rate of fire.
The second loadout option, the Rapid-Fire Loadout, for the Ifrit is a newer idea for the company, combining the quick recharge time of previous models while using the power available to the weapon to increase its firing rate. The increased firing rate was only possible due to the increased energy efficiency and output from the internal Ramuh-II, and while it does slightly decrease the damage output, it more than makes up for it with a near continuous stream of turbolaser blasts.
The third loadout option, the Long-Range Loadout, continues the tradition of Aurora Industries' turbolasers and increasing their range capabilities. The system slots in the Sianteria plasma canisters, combining some of the ideas from the Salamand's Bombardment mode to give the weapons an artillery-like blast with explosive plasma.
The fourth loadout option, the Scatter-Fire Loadout, harkens back to an early design of the company during its transition from its One Sith origins as Krayt Industries to its modern neutral branding of Aurora. When this loadout option is selected, several beam splitters slot into place within the barrel of the weapon to split the turbolaser blast into a spread pattern. While this mode is useful for short-range brawling and broadsides, it does sacrifice range from the weapon to a significant degree.

SPECIAL FEATURES
- Continuing the variable design philosophy of Aurora Industries, the Ifrit Turbolaser is designed with four different firing loadouts that a gunnery crew can switch between through a toggle switch that cycles different ammunition and components into place within the turbolaser:
- The Standard Loadout utilizes standard Sianteria gas canisters to create significantly stronger turbolaser blasts, similar to its predecessor the Salamand.
- The Rapid-Fire Loadout utilizes spin-sealed Sianteria gas canisters to fire turbolaser blasts at a rapid clip, far faster than standard turbolasers, although the damage output is reduced to compensate energy needs for the rate of fire.
- The Long-Range Loadout utilizes Sianteria plasma canisters to fire explosive plasma bolts at long distances, giving the turbolaser the ability to act as artillery batteries, although this loadout does use up the ammunition canisters faster than other loadouts.
- The Scatter-Fire Loadout utilizies standard Sianteria gas canisters, but slots in a beam splitter within the barrel of the turbolaser that splits the turbolaser blasts into a spread pattern for short range brawling and broadsides.
- The Ifrit Turbolaser can be configured into any style aesthetic, based on the ship being constructed, and can also be configured into any layout such as single laser cannons, twin cannons, turrets, and so forth.
- The Ifrit Turbolaser can switch between four different firing loadouts at the discretion of the gunnery crew by toggling through available ammunition options.
- An internal Ramuh-II Power Core allows the Ifrit to be independent of a ship's reactor core, allowing gunnery crews or fighter pilots to fire the weapons even if the main reactors are sabotaged or disabled. With the upgrade from the Ramuh-II, power flow is more efficient and enables the necessary power needs for the various fire loadouts of the Ifrit.
- Other than the Scatter-Fire loadout, the Ifrit Turbolaser has a higher recoil due to the increased damage output and rate of fire its various loadouts have from the Sianteria-based ammunition canisters.
- If the preservation field capsule fails or the device is sabotaged within the Ramuh-II core, the crystal within sublimated immediately into its plasma state, reducing the power output of the device by roughly half until a new crystal capsule is installed. This reduces the damage output and rate of fire of all the turbolaser's firing loadouts by one stage.
