• Nobles of Null is a forum based roleplay site where sci-fi and magic collide. Here, Earth remains fractured and divided despite humanity reaching out to the stars. Worse still, the trans-human slaves of one major power have escaped, only to establish their own Empire, seething with resentment at abuses of the past. Even the discovery of aliens, though medieval in development, has failed to rally these squabbling children of Earth together with its far darker implications. Worse still, is the discovery of the impossible - magic. Practiced by the alien locals, nearly depleted and therefore rare, its reality warping abilities remains abstract and distant to the general populace. All the while, unseen in the darkness of space, forces from without threaten to press in. For those with eyes opened by insight, it is clear that an era is about to end, and that a new age will dawn.

UG-20 Hypervelocity Infantry Handled Anti-Tank


The UG-20 Hypervelocity Infantry Handled Anti-Tank (Hi-Hat) is a disposable, man portable, anti-tank weapon that fires a single hypervelocity missile designed to destroy its target with kinetic energy.

History


Stellar would acquire a number of small arms manufacturers and have a growing small-arms business as of 2320. With the increasing instability in the Human Sphere, Stellar Shipyards and Stellar Arms decided to break into the heavy weapons market. Combining their rocketry experience with their recently acquired small-arms division, they were able to produced a simple, disposable, weapon system for use against vehicles.

The American Union would rapidly evaluate and approve the weapon for large scale procurement, re-naming the weapon system the UG-20. It would be widely procured, with the initial units going to the 26th ISOC fleet for operation Troubled Waters with the goal of securing the Atlantica system from the Magnetic Assembly.

Layout


The Hi-Hat is a conventional shoulder-launched missile stored in a tube, with a basic shoulder pad, trigger assembly, and red-dot sight.

Usage


The Hi-Hat is a kinetic energy weapon, which requires a few hundred meters to get up to full speed which requires the operator be far enough away from the target for maximum effect. The missile itself is designed to fly directly towards its target, able to fly 10km before the engine depletes its fuel supply and the rocket returns to a ballistic trajectory.
