Official Weapon Name:ENVI (Electromagnetic Nano-pulse Vehicular Incapacitation) Proximity-Detonation Mine
Faction/Affiliation: Republic
Classification: EMP Anti-Vehicle/Anti-Droid Proximity, Pressure Mine
Stock/Custom: Stock
Manufacturer: Northern Monument Technologies
Dimensions:
Extended/Deployed
Length: .81 m
Width: .50
Height: .17 m

Other:
Pros:
Cons:
Description:
A newly developed design utilizing refined ion-blaster technology, this mine was sold to the Republic to use on hostile worlds where armored ground conflict was inevitable.
The system, when activated, emits several potent pulses of electromagnetic and magnetic radiations out to a respectable distance. These pulses produce overloads of electrical current in circuits and non-grounded plating that permanently disables lesser electrical systems and temporarily shuts down all shock-hardened ones requiring a full system reboot. The encrypted activation system works under the same communication frequency as the Immobilizer Flash Disc.
The final product was completed in just under 6 months of full development, the tabular appearance enhanced by several stability enhancement plates that give the mine a larger cross section but allowing room for more energy. It is heavy, dense, unwieldy, and needs to be placed and activated before use. Though unhappy with the product as a whole, Roland and the primary design team are hoping that, in time, a grenade version of the same technology can be developed that is both efficient and cost effective.
