McDonnell
Douglas Non-Lethal Net Gun
|
The
McDonnell Douglas Net Gun is a one-of-a-kind creation in the field
of Exo weapons. The gun is a non-lethal capture/entanglement
device designed to slow one opponent down without injuring them.
There are several sizes of net, but Exo pilots usually carry the
25m (has a cone radius of 25 feet/7.5 m) to ensure it can cover
most common sized Exo’s and even large wild life. Many Scout
–Recon units have been assigned a Net Gun in order to capture
and retrieve mission specific targets. The McDonnell Douglas Net
Gun is unique in that it is the only gun of its type to
incorporate a winch system, allowing the gun to retrieve the net
and its capture prey. Other manufactures, including McDonnell
Douglas, produce a version without the winch, forcing the Exo to
retrieve the net and target. However sometimes retrieval is not
necessary, the net gun is quite effective in slowing the
progression of opponents chasing the Exo, in this case the net is
simply fired and forgotten.
