PRODUCTION INFORMATION
- Manufacturer: N&Z Umbrella Corporation
- Affiliation: Closed Market
- Model: DSHT .228 , DSHT .30, DSHT .350
- Modularity: Available in .228, .350, 223 and .50 caliber [all available in Magazines of 20, with boxes counting up to 10 magazines or Chains of 100 packed in a single tin]
- Production: Mass Production
- Material:
- Ersteel SLCA dual jacket
- Ersteel 145 Tip
- Barradium charge
- Pressurized Noxinium B w. Phosphorus ignition
- Dual sequence: Just like the DSI rounds the DSHT rounds have a secondary trigger, meaning that when the bullet is fired, a secondary charge is essentially primed and will be ignited upon impact. This is done by utilizing a dual jacket, where the larger jacket holds the barradium utilized as the propellant after firing, while within the secondary jacket the Noxinium B mixed with Phosphorus will be lit on impact, thus creating a dual sequence High Explosive round.
- Corrosive Flames: The combination of Phosphorus and Noxinium B found in the secondary charge compartment when ignited will explote with a bluish white flame and strange white sparkling, this is how people will know the Phosphorus is activated, as rather than seeking oxygen out of the air, it will draw it out of the material (organic AND inorganic) it is closest to, meaning that the flames can effectively burn into materials for maximum damage, rather than just across them.
- Classification: Full metal dual Jacket, dual sequence High Thermal rounds
- Size: Average
- Weight: Heavy
- Explosive Type: Baradium charge+Noxinium B-Phosphorus secondary charge
- Delivery Method: Fired
- Effective Range: Long Range
- Area Of Effect: Localized
- Stopping Power: Very High
- High thermal reaction: The temperature exuded by the secondary charge is enough to melt most materials, which means it can be used to greatly damage structures, electrical systems, but would also have a much more gruesome effect on living tissue.
- Dual Sequence: As it is dual sequence, standard shields which stop slugs can get overwhelmed by the intense heat the secondary charge unleashes, unless if the shielding has integrated heatshielding.
- High Penetrating power
- Variable caliber sizes
- Unstable Noxinium B: The noxinium B, even when pressurized is somewhat unstable and highly toxic, meaning these rounds need to be handled with care and must always be checked for possible defects and leakage of the secondary charge into the primary charge or the results could be disastrous.
- Weight: While lighter than the DSI rounds, these DSHT rounds still have quite the weight to them, making them much harder to be transported in person.
- Explosion effect is localized: While they technically do explode, they are not named High Explosive, as the explosion itself is less outward and more inward, less shockwave and more flame and heat. This means most of the damage it creates is localized.
As part of the further evolution of the N&Z Corporation's products, the DSI rounds were being used as the basis for a new type of slug accessible to all who used DSI rounds prior. Research had shown that the Dual sequence technology could be refined and improved upon, which lead to the engineers of the N&Z EnSol division to look into all possible combinations that could be achieved succesfully.
At first the researchers thought about a high explosive round, utilizing a secondary noxinium B charge with additional barradium, but when the dual sequence jacket was made, the idea of High Explosive turned towards High Thermal, which could give much more useful after effects to the rounds, as they could be used to melt material, be it organic or anorganic, resulting in for instance the oppostunity to practicall shoot and melt locks off of doors, fully fry electrical systems rather than damage them, but crucially, it would also lead to much more structural damage to materials, but also any person unfortunate to be struck.
The choice to add Phosphorus to the DSHT rounds' secondary charge was made in order to localize the explosion, giving it a somewhat thermo-baric effect where it would exude extreme heat rather than a displacement of air in the form of a shockwave as is usual with most high explosive rounds, this localized heat combined with the sinister sparkling effect of phosphorus upon ignition grants these rounds their nickname of the 'Burning Sun'.
Ofcourse despite all safety meassures, the DSHT rounds need to be handled with great care, for any leakage or mixing of the interior components could result in severe casualties. Leakage from the secondary into the primary chamber of the dual jacket upon firing may result in a misfire which would be capable of killing the very person who took the shot...
