The Lance of Longinus
Palette Rifles
Used mainly by Evangelion Unit
01, this is a standard issue rifle . The rifle proved fairly ineffectual
at destroying angels in all but one occasion : Matarael .
Spear
Once again, made of the same material
as the progressive knife, the spear was used by Unit 02 during the attack
of the angel Israfel, that could split itself into two .
Positron Rifle
There are two versions of the Positron
rifle, one is a smaller shoulder mounted version, cyclotron prototype 20
. The other is a larger "Self-Propelled" version . Designed by the JSSDF
(Japanese Strategic Self Defense Force) labs, it is roughly twice the length
of the smaller version . The JSSDF prototype was never field tested, but
was rushed into service to combat the 5th Angel . The power required to
charge the rifle was 180 Gigawatts .
Shield Armour
The shield used by Units 00 and
01 as defense against the fifth angel, Ramiel . Which was derived from
the heat shielding armour of a space shuttle . In Ritsuko Akagi's own words
"This was a SSTO (Single Stage to Orbit) rocket . Its bottom armour was
originally super-electromagnetically coated and the second section assures
us is can withstand the enemy's particle cannon for 17 seconds .
