Description: Designed as a mobile infantry turret, the device is designed with a repulsorlift, allowing it to be towed along or given digital commands through a small access panel on the surface of the turret. Equipped with a targeting computer and coupled with the FFACTS, the turret is able to be programmed to recognize Friend v Foe using a few simple parameters. Programing is not easily modified and requires at least 30 minutes to conduct under ideal circumstances. Equipped with a micro-generator, it is able to recharge at a rapid rate, allowing extremely high rate of fire though if sustained for long periods of time the weapon is liable to overheat and/or fry circuitry rendering the turret useless. As a backup, the turret is also equipped with a blaster pack port through which additional ammunition can be utilized if the micro-generator becomes damaged. Able to fire at a sustained rate of 200 rpm (At half power of a regular E-Web Blaster), it is capable of around 800 rpm, though after a mere two minutes of operating at this rate the weapon will fail whether it’s the barrel melting or the micro-generator reaches critical and explodes, it is not recommended to fire at full rate. Firing at 100 rpm allows the standard power of an E-Web blaster to be maintained and is the overal recommended rate of fire. Rates of fire are selectable by a simple command input on the concealed digital screen control panel.
