DRAGOON Positron Blaster

Side Effect
Whenever a DRAGOON Positron Blaster is fired in an Earth-based Atmosphere, it causes a positronic interference. However, the interference is not dangerous and therefore, should be taken lightly. Whenever it is fired in mid-flight, the atmosphere around the ship is merely disintegrated at the front of the ship, eliminating air resistance and allowing it to reach a faster speed.

Basic Information
As the name suggests, the DRAGOON Positron Blaster fires a beam of positrons. Positrons are the antithesis of electrons, therefore when the positron beam comes into contact with an object, it causes the positrons and electrons within the object to annihilate each other, making it to disintegrate at a molecular level. The Blaster had two side effects, one was lethal while the other wasn't. The lethal side effect was a burst of gamma radiation, which will cause further damage. And because of that, the weapon was only used in space because any firing on a planet will cause a great amount of damage. Even with the knowledge with the side effect, the  chose to ignore this and use it ground side, seeing the great potential that the weapon had to offer on their ground installations and their vehicles. The non-lethal side effect was the greater amount of speed when it is fired during mid-flight.

Modifications/Variants
The DRAGOON Positron Blaster itself saw little changes after its creation but whenever it was modified, its performance was increased significantly. Several variants were produced, each being better than the one before. Some, like the AYRA Positron Blaster, was only produced in small numbers.

AYRA Prototype
The AYRA Prototype was the first prototypical model of the DRAGOON Positron Blaster. Conceived by , the prototype was soon built. The first initial batch numbered about 125 with another batch pending. But sadly, AYRA proved to be unstable in terms of damage and side effects, with the damage often fluxuating to large proportions and the side effects being irreversible when fired ground side. Kornak deemed the prototype too dangerous and decided to place the prototypes into storage. Years later, after the creation of the Nogera-class Dreadnought, the AYRA weapon was brought out of storage and used as a mainstay weapon for the dreadnought. With the first batch depleted, the current  began mass producing the unstable weapon, oblivious to its shortcomings.

GLEADR Modification
The GLEADR Modification to the DRAGOON Positron Blaster was a rather simple and innovative one. The  created a three-barreled blaster, calling it the GLEADR Mod. With this, it allows the Modified Weapon to fire three discharges at a time.
