DESCRIPTION
Initially envisioned as a smaller version of CST's hyper particle cannon, the project developed into its current iteration as part of the companies push to bring surface armor into its realm of production, and the inability of the engineers to miniaturize the powerful naval weapon. The PC-4 Jair, or Shriek for those that aren't Mandalorian, was designed to provide both and anti-armor and an artillery solution from units that couldn't afford to bring in more vehicles to battle. As such, the weapon has two different firing modes, allowing it to serve i both roles, though it has been touted as a "master-of-none," and some have questioned how well it will perform in practice. Wherever one stands though, they see great potential in the system.
