- Explosive Shots: As they explode on contact, bolts cannot be reflected by lightsabers and confer considerable concussive and thermal force on whatever they hit while also having the potential to kill or injure through 'splash' alone.
- Stun setting blasts out in a cone making it difficult to dodge or block.
- While Painless, repeated uses of the stun effect may incur prolonged headaches, muscle cramps, dizziness, and possible nausea to most sentients.
- A full-sized rifle, the V-PR looses out on close quarter maneuverability to some designs without its stock folded.
Rugged dependability was the by-word for the Viper's design. Chuchi wanted to ensure that no soldier using one of her weapons would ever be let down by it in the heat of battle. Its frame and body are made from robust plasteel giving the rifle incredible durability on a range of battlefields while maintaining a lighter weight. To keep costs down, few exotic materials were used in the Viper's construction; and functionality was kept simple beyond the ability to integrate with a soldier's other equipment such as a heads-up display and vision enhancement. This has the added benefit of simplified training and maintenance on the rifle while lowering logistical costs.
Intended to be the GADF's primary weapon across a wide range of situations, from shipboard combat to every conceivable biome a planet could present, including corrosive or toxic atmospheres, the Viper features an enclosed design with rust inhibitors protecting its more vulnerable internals. A de-ionizer built into the weapon even allows it to recover from ion and EMP attacks in just a few moments. While the explosive particles are capable of punching through most armors, for those defenses simply too heavy to outright defeat, the shots impart significant kinetic energy to a target while the concussive blasts find the small gaps between plates and seams.
After failing to find a foothold with the GA's military, Chi auctioned off the design to recoup development costs. Mercenary Arms scooped up the rights to produce the Liberty Vector along with the accompanying launcher under license after a name change to provide them with their first assault rifle design.
