R-22 Javelin Standard Issue Republic Blaster Rifle Name • R-22 Javelin Classification • Weapon Origin • TL Arms of Balmorra Specifications Size • How big is this thing? Give rough estimates in metric measurements (meters) - Height: 200mm - Width: 74mm - Length: 914mm Appearance • The Javelin is a long heavy barreled blaster rifle with a short front hand grip and a folding sight mount that can be stowed out of the way on either side of the rifle. Function The Republic Javelin is designed with protracted long range engagements in mind where it's accuracy and heavy thermal sheathe allows it to maintain precise and rapid fire over long periods of time. Though not especially heavy the long length and size of the R-22 make it an awkward weapon to use in confined spaces like those in vehicles or starships. This deficiency can be mitigated somewhat with the removal of its detachable buttstock though in this configuration the rifle is noticeably front heavy. The Javelin's folding sight rib can take a variety of optics and rifle itself bears the capability of being tied into a trooper's helmet integrated targeting system. A long groove under the barrel serves as a mounting point for a range of under barrel attachments including grenade launchers. |
