95A8-975 10x65mm Magnetically Saboted Linear Projectile (MSLP)

See Also: Armaments of the Colonial Pact

A solid linear projectile utilized in electromagnetic weapons using magnetic force to launch their ammunition rather than a chemical propellant. Those of this family are typically used in exosuit and power armor weaponry as well as some fixed and crew served man portable weapons. It is a rectangular 'brick' style cartridge with the cylindrical projectile housed in a magnetically conductive sabot.

  • In Service - 970 N.C.C.
  • Type - Magnetically Saboted Linear Projectile
  • Projectile Diameter - 10 mm (0.393 in)
  • Projectile Length - 65 mm (2.55 in)

Cartridge Types and Stats

95A8-975-V1 (SRA) Standard Rigid Ammunition

Standard solid single high density metal projectile for general issue and use.

  • Damage Rating - Weapon Dependent
  • Cartridge Dimensions - 10x65mm
  • Damage Description - Kinetic, either lightly deforming on impact against a hard surface or armor. If it penetrates it often goes through flesh and bone alike after defeating the armor.
  • Recoil - Power Armor Level 'Moderate'
  • Firing Method - Asynchronous Magnetic Saboted Linear Acceleration, No Propellant

95A8-975-V2 (RCDB) Rigid Core Discarding Body

A specialized round with a high density rigid core surrounded by softer higher mass metal, primarily intended for armor piercing.

  • Damage Rating - Weapon Dependent
  • Cartridge Dimensions - 10x65mm
  • Damage Description - Kinetic with a high density hard core wrapped in a softer metal sheath, the round deforms on impact with the mass of the projectile being focused in front of the hard high density core. This core typically leaving its sheath behind and piercing the target.
  • Recoil - Power Armor Level 'Moderate'
  • Firing Method - Asynchronous Magnetic Saboted Linear Acceleration, No Propellant

95A8-975-V3 (KISF) Kinetically Initiated Solid Fusion

A impact fused solid plasma fusion projectile that employs a sudden high density fusion reaction to produce high heat and blast forces on the target.

  • Damage Rating - Weapon Dependent
  • Cartridge Dimensions - 10x65mm
  • Damage Description - A non-penetrating projectile with a ballistic tip, it employs velocity and a special impact fuzed solid plasma warhead. This produces an instant point of high temperature and overpressure from a micro fusion reaction causing thermal and blast damage.
  • Recoil - Power Armor Level 'Moderate'
  • Firing Method - Asynchronous Magnetic Saboted Linear Acceleration, No Propellant
