Strengths:
- Two Stage Detonation -
- A complicated and powerful round, each ‘fallout’ is capable of not only penetrating light armor, but destroying whatever is behind it. Each round contains not only miniaturized computer components capable of precise timing, but an initial 'bunker buster' style shaped charge to help penetrate armor without damaging the sensitive components inside. This begins when the bullet is fired, and continues through every stage of its life.
Weaknesses:
- Jaeger Exclusive -
- Without a Jaeger weapon with proper technology there is very little in options other can utilize the 'Salt' rounds with. While the power is still very capable, without something like “The Vora” to utilize it, there isn’t much one could do, creating a very significant drop in accuracy otherwise. Due to a limited amount of Jaeger Products that utilize this technology, this makes the rounds relatively situational unless already deep within Jaeger's capitalist control.
- EMP Sensitive -
- Should the rounds be exposed to high levels of electricity, a radiant ion blast, or any such anti electrical system, each would be made completely negated in activation. This means not only those in flight, but those on reserves and back up as well, should they not be stored in a proper faraday caged magazine or backup hold.
- Hard Headed -
- While the initial shaped charge helps bust through light forms of armor, the round itself does not carry enough weight nor power to break through heavier set plates. This makes a glaring weakness in the fact that armored personnel, lightly armored vehicles, and more all have the capacity to ignore much of the damage this would be able to do compared to if penetration was involved.
DESCRIPTION
Jaeger Solutions continues pushing forward the limits of war based technologies, and in this they seek another continued expansion. This day, they seek to disable Droids and Cybernetics, and to do this they miniaturized another product they have had resounding success with. Where they had success with the RB-02, they invented the same platform - only changed the payload from the Cobalt Salt to Ionite; able to spread out inside of an enemy Droid, and destroy their ability to use the Force.
Insert the “Droid's Bane”, a round that acts like a self contained ion field with each expulsion of the barrel. Where as the last iteration of the round created a highly radioactive fallout dust on the inside of its target, the RB-04 releases a Ionite dust fine enough to spread out in the blood stream, or internal cybernetics of a droid. This creates a cardiovascular feedback loop or even aerated cloud that quickly disables ones electronics, be they droid or otherwise - along with all those around them, either inside the body, or outside.
This rounds works in two stages, each of which will be explained in a summarized fashion. The first is the initial firing, a mixture of computerized calculations and flechette styled rounds sending forth an unruly payload. Once closer, the same laser system will test the distance to the target, taking instant choices on if the initial shaped charge would be sufficient to push through or not. Once determined, and the charge either goes off or doesn't, the round itself seek to shred through whatever is beneath and end up within the target within short order.
The second stage is what the round is known for, an area-of-effect expulsion throws all the material pent up within the round in a one meter radius should it be unhindered by bodily organs or solid material. This is done directly after the entropy field is canceled, creating a moment where the effects of the Ionite are spread out once again; compared to previously, where they were held in time stasis. Inside of a target, this can open up a small cavity and spread the Ionite material inside them with little hesitance. The process is brutal, and the lasting effects are equally destructive; but any droid or android on the receiving end would quickly realize the brutal effectiveness of the round.
In our trying times, Jaeger Solutions abandons short term morality for what should be always the end result. ‘Total War’, a strategy which involves destroying and maiming every sense of security an enemy holds. Instead of a simply blaster round, or bullet shredding muscle, this will not only leave a small cavity in them but a Ionite process leftover that is difficult to clean and treat; leaving most Force Users out of commission for weeks, if not longer. To end the conflict quickly is to save lives, and Jaeger Solutions seeks to do just this.
There is no equal.
