Note: The tech basis of most of these weapons is the mass-driver. For those of you who don't know, a mass-driver uses a powerful magnet to propel a projectile, in these weapons case, a metal penetrator made out of an alloy of neodynium (VERY powerful magnetic) and a hard and light-weight metal. The magnet is (for my stuff) in the form of a powerful electro-magnet, which shoots the penetrator out at high speed with little to no sound or recoil. The magnet is energized upon pulling of the trigger, shooting out the bullet. To prevent jams, the trigger MUST be released between each shot, otherwise a built in safety mechanism will prevent the bolt from be loaded, as it would shoot diagonallly downward and forward out the side of clip/bottom of barrel otherwise. It should be noted that even though the firing is silent the high speed bullet makes quite a bit of noise in the form of a sonic boom (it is travelling at mach 2 when it leave the barrel)

ZT-15 Rifle, standard weapon of the Terai Infantry

Cost: Need help with that
Firing time: Semi-auto, electromagnetic ejector needs to be warmed up before battle, takes about 30 seconds of charging
Capacity: 20 shots per clip
Ammo: Penetrator made of alloy descirbed above, about 1 cm diameter 4 cm length cynlidrical, with a very pointy tip.
Accuracy: Pretty accurate, accuracy dosen't very much between shots due to utter lack of recoil
Equipment attached:

A 5 inch razor-edged bayonet that extends out of the section below the barrel upon flipping of a switch near the trigger

A 5x scope

Zta-3 Powered Armor

Basic description: Its a powered battlesuit, equipped with several weapons. Only used by elite companys, not regular grunts, due both to its high cost and the amount of technology in it.

Armor is 3cm of a lightweight and strong alloy, its bullet-proof, but don't expect a wearer to get back up after being hit with a RPG

Weapons:

XT-20 (Basically like the Zt-15 only with larger ammo and higher muzzle velocity (in excess of mach 3), big enough that it is only man-portable using a ZTA-3 suit, otherwise it needs a team to carry it and a tripod to be mounted on before firing

A pair of 1/2 meter long blades that can be extended from each of the suits wrists


Vehicles to be added later
