Overview of the Tartarian Technocracy Small Arms and Armor

            Type-165281 Meson Pistol (Standard Issue): This sidearm is common among all services of the Prodono Alliance, but is the favored weapon of Cosmo-Navy personnel. It was first introduced in 335,887 BC (Earth Relative). The Meson pistol is a 63 caliber,100-kilowatt weapon, with an internal fusion-battery that holds 30-bolts. Its rate of fire is one-bolt per pull of the trigger (semi-automatic). Range is 5000-feet/1524 meters. Damage is 1913.5-megajoules (about 0.51 tons of TNT) of energy within the diameter of its caliber (0.63 inches).

            Type-165281 Meson Rifle (Standard Issue): The most common rifle weapon used by the Prodono Alliance, and introduced at the same time as its smaller pistol cousin. It is also a 63 caliber, 100-kilowatt weapon with an internal battery that holds 60-bolts. Its rate of fire is tri-burst (three shots with one pull of the trigger). Range is 10,000-feet/3048-meters. Damage is 3827-megajoules (about 0.91 tons of TNT) of energy within the diameter of its caliber.

            Type-165555 Ion-Blaster Rifle (Space Marine Issue only): Designed and issued in 335,613 BC (Earth Relative), this weapon was intended to give Prodono Space Marine forces more of a "punch" against armored targets than the standard Meson Rifle. It is a 1.8 inch/45mm (180 caliber), 100-kilowatt Ion-Blaster weapon with an internal batter that holds 60-blasts. It has a rate of fire of one-blast per pull of the trigger (semi-automatic). Range is 11,800-feet/3596.6-meters. Damage is 9972-megajoules (2.38 tons of TNT) as an explosive blast to a target.

            Type-212168 MASER Sword-Pistol (Flag Officers Issue Only): Introduced in 300,000 BC (Earth Relative) for Flag officers of the Prodono Alliance fleets, this MASER Sword-Pistol is a unique weapon. Its MASER beam emitter is a 1.5-inch/39mm (150 caliber), 40-kilowatt, octagonal beam array with an internal battery that holds 50-beam blasts and 19 MASER-blade uses. MASER beam blade is a 48-inches/1.2 meter, 53-kilowatt blade held together via an electromagnetic torsion field (counter-clockwise rotation). Damage is 3144-megajoules for the MASER beam, or 900-megajoules for the blade. Range of the MASER beam emitter is 4000-feet.

Nek-Rai Type-165300:

         This exoskeleton was designed by the first Prodono Alliance as the standard military battle dress (combat armor) for all of their military services. The technological level and make/model of this armor, the Type-165300 Nek-RAI, remained unchanged for most of the history of the Prodono Alliance since its inception in the year 335,884 BC. The stockpiles of this armor in most of the former Prodono states must have been staggering. This exoskeleton was designed for an individual with average strength. The battle-dress armor also came in various sizes that could be used by weaker races and females.
