Alien KKV launcher
--Alien KKV launcher(pre-research)--
Sir, we have a specimen of the most destructive weapon in the alien's arsenal. And destructive it is indeed. Footage captured during our first encounter with this weapon shows it blasting apart tanks, buildings, and our own infantry with single shots. Test firing done so far nearly destroyed the lab's firing range.
Commander, we must figure out how this works immediately. We have to find a counter to this weapon, or we risk more losses on the front lines.
--Alien KKV launcher(post-research)--
We have finally figured out how this monster works. It's a simple, but effective design.
The "launcher", as we've deemed it, is nothing more than a tube with grips, a trigger, and a sight attached. The "projectile" is inserted in the back, where a magnetic locking system holds it in place until the trigger is pulled. Then said holding mechanism flings the projectile free.
But that's not the scary part. The projectile is.
The projectile is a antimatter powered rocket without an explosive warhead. At the speed it goes at, it packs a wallop on it's own. Two variants have been observed: solid(most likely for anti-material purposes)and flechette(the rocket fragments in flight to make a titanic shotgun).
