SPECIAL FEATURES
- Hip-fire Aim Assistance System (HAAS)
The Tachyon Assaulter Energy Rifle (TA Rifle) makes use of an automatic hip-fire aiming assistance system. At the front of the rifle, there are two small and minuscule electronic optical units one of which is located above the loading and firing chamber of the barrel while another one is located below the barrel. These military analyzer systems have a very small range of sight. If a circle were to be drawn on a piece of paper and the gun was represented as a straight line at the end of the circle, this line would only contain within its line of sight a thirty-degree angle. The combat optics only have a very frontal viewpoint, not being able to turn to the sides due to protective metal coverings and the lack of being able to automatically turn the gun in any direction as they are not in control of the gun's operator. - The TA Rifle can, however, control the gun to an extent. When the optics happen across any enemy, the barrel of the rifle will shift in the slightest of degree and movements to aim directly onto the target which the optics caught onto. Once caught onto and aimed onto the target, the TA rifle can automatically vibrate against the gun operator's finger on the trigger to notify the user that the HAAS is locked onto a target and is ready and operational to fire. Though the HAAS has a much more effective way of utilizing its functionality in the gun. The system is toggleable between a 'Manual Fire' and 'Automatic Fire' mode for the HAAS. The manual fire sends a vibration to the trigger of the rifle. The automatic fire will automatically pull the metal trigger inwards to autonomously fire the gun onto an enemy instead of relying on user integrated support.
Strengths
- HAAS
- Shots can pierce through 'normal' and rudimentary shielding
- Deadly in close range
- Quick Reload
- Utterly useless at long ranges
- Volatile battery system
- Awkward to hold
- Occasionally breaks down; can break down in the middle of combat
- The Tachyon Assaulter Rifle is an offshoot of the highly effective Tachyon Charge Rifle. Instead of focusing solely on the long range, destructive power of charged energy blasts, the Assaulter rifle is centered around the concept of assault rifles and weapons which have high rates of fire. Though not as deadly or a fearsome as the Hellstorm Rotary Cannon which was also developed by the GWS, the TA rifle is a more streamlined, combat ready and frontline centered assault weapon for use by the GWS and it's own market buyers. Like the charge rifle, the TA relies on the idea that energy based weapons can be more effective against armors and shielding systems than that of tibanna gas weapons and slug weapons.
