M29 Arbalist

The M-29 Ion Weapon was a plasma weapon used during the Second Robotech War.

I was based on the same frame as the M-27, however, it functioned differently. The Arbalist was developed for clandestine and wetwork operations, and is favored by the Forest Division. The weapon’s ammunition was so expensive to manufacture that it is only distributed for mission-specific operations. It used magnetic acceleration to fire plasma-tipped flechettes of the same caliber as the M-27’s pitons. The bolts seared through thick Armor and an embedded flechette penetrated the soft internals.
