SPECIAL FEATURES
- Extendable third grip: the most forwardly placed handle/grip can be extended and split in order to have a stabilizer when firing from a fixed position, removing the need for a tripod.
- Remote operation: While this assault rifle still needs a cabled connection with a datapad, those using this weapon can still set it up to connect with said datapad and the onboard Proton MkI droid brain to turn this weapon into a safe means of counterfire when pinned down. Eventual upgrades to utilize the B and C series scopes and technical layout have been taken into consideration.
- NZ DSI Rounds : Uniquely suited to utilize the DSI rounds from the N&Z, this weapon adds another level of lethality.
- Detacheable stock, barrel and scope.
- Three firing modes: Auto, Semi Auto [burst], manual
- Modular: Outwardly looking mainly like a standard assault rifle, this weapon can be scaled down by removing the forward piece of the barrel, the grips and the stock to become a small, yet versatile handheld weapon. It also can be outfitted with additional gear thanks to the outer shell having various connective meassures, with slides, pins and rings to secure additional gear.
- Variable AMMO: capable of utilizing both slugs or rounds, but also having the capacity to exchange the standard rounds magazine for a powercell, this weapon's versatility is off the charts.
- Lightweight Design: despite having additional internals to make sure it can act as either a blaster rifle or a slugthrower assault rifle, the engineering has chosen to minimize the overall weight of the design, allowing for it to be carried with more ease and comfort.
- Thermal efficiency: Due to the use of heatshielding, smart use of carbonite and polycarbonite, this weapon will practically never overheat or sustain warping damage.
- Expensive as heck: while usually not seen as a downside, for a mass produced item, this weapon has some insane costs attached to it, as the internals are heavily engineered and specialized, making it extremely expensive for a weapon in either of its intended classes while not exactly being the absolute best at all of its operational modes in standard outfit. Because of this, only Major factions are capable of fielding this weapon en masse without it stripmining their bank accounts.
- Fragile externals: Because of the goal to save weight on the design, the engineering has gone for light materials with extremely good heat resistance on the outside, granting some protection for the weapon as a whole, but at the same time it tends to do worse in terms of kinetic damage, or simply being dropped could dent and damage the externals, which if not handled properly could be an actual hazard or weak spot on the weapon.
The NZ EnSol division was tasked with the design of a modular, lightweight, yet powerful assault rifle. This was a task generally not a problem for any engineering firm or team, unless when the specifications included the dual purpose of being both a blaster rifle and a slugthrower. In this way, all perimeters such as weight, range and stopping power become more of a challenge to meet for the EnSol engineers compared to the initial onset of the design.
Banking heavily on the DPAR's modularity, the weapon's stock, barrel and grips have been made detachable, with the in-house scope system having this same distinction. In case of materials, the focus was put on lightness and heat dispersement and resistance, making it so that in neither form of firing nor in eithyer of the firing modi, the weapon could overheat or warp, adding a much better durability to the design when used in combat, yet at the same time the outer shells have been proven to be rather fragile as a result of the design's lightness.
