-Designed in [[timeline:ye_33]] by [[stararmy:ranks:taisa]] [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro]] for the [[stararmy:start]], the Type 33 Nekovalkyrja Service Pistol is largely a revision of the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_30]] with a simplified grip and fewer parts.  While it preserves the general shape and feel of the Type 30, it is made to be easier to produce and more versatile than its predecessor in light of newer handheld weapons.  It reintroduces some aspects of the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_28]] to make it a better match against the [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:nmx:nmx_type_31_sidearm]], albeit in a more balanced way.+Designed in [[timeline:ye_33]] by [[stararmy:ranks:taisa]] [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro]] for the [[stararmy:start]], the Type 33 Nekovalkyrja Service Pistol is largely a revision of the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_30]] with a simplified grip and fewer parts.  While it preserves the general shape and feel of the Type 30, it is made to be easier to produce and more versatile than its predecessor in light of newer handheld weapons.  It reintroduces some aspects of the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_28]] to make it a better match against the [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:weapons:nmx_type_31_sidearm]], albeit in a more balanced way.
  
 The gun’s exterior has been simplified while retaining the shape and feel of the Type 30 NSP, but significantly reducing the total number of parts and the complexity of the weapon.  The finish of the weapon depends on the model.  The trigger is the same as that of the Type 28 NSP because of the need for the same type of trigger manipulation.  Due to this, it should be quite familiar in the hands of a veteran soldier.  The grip is sturdy and has a small space inside, for storing things such as a [[wp>Multitool]] knife or other mission-specific equipment.  It can be accessed from the base and also contains a small cable and power jack for charging the NSP’s battery or for drawing from the NSP’s [[stararmy:weapons:br-28_series_battery_magazine|battery]] to power external devices like the [[stararmy:equipment:communicator_type_29]].  It also uses the [[stararmy:weapons:br-28_series_battery_magazine|BR-28 Rechargeable Battery Magazine]] and the [[corp:yggdrasill:yb_28a]] as power options, so the holster for the weapon is designed to accommodate both. The gun’s exterior has been simplified while retaining the shape and feel of the Type 30 NSP, but significantly reducing the total number of parts and the complexity of the weapon.  The finish of the weapon depends on the model.  The trigger is the same as that of the Type 28 NSP because of the need for the same type of trigger manipulation.  Due to this, it should be quite familiar in the hands of a veteran soldier.  The grip is sturdy and has a small space inside, for storing things such as a [[wp>Multitool]] knife or other mission-specific equipment.  It can be accessed from the base and also contains a small cable and power jack for charging the NSP’s battery or for drawing from the NSP’s [[stararmy:weapons:br-28_series_battery_magazine|battery]] to power external devices like the [[stararmy:equipment:communicator_type_29]].  It also uses the [[stararmy:weapons:br-28_series_battery_magazine|BR-28 Rechargeable Battery Magazine]] and the [[corp:yggdrasill:yb_28a]] as power options, so the holster for the weapon is designed to accommodate both.

-After purchasing a [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:nmx:nmx_type_31_sidearm]] from a salvage company; [[stararmy:ranks:taisa]] [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro]] decided to perform an in-depth comparison between the abilities of the enemy firearm, the old [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_28]] which was still in use by some veteran soldiers in the Star Army, and the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_30]] which served then as the Star Army’s current standard issue firearm.  While the NMX weapon was more technologically advanced and in theory had infinite energy, the abilities of the Yamataian weapons to reload quickly and use higher capacity batteries if desired offset the advancements due to the charging speed of the firearm in regular use.  However, the “Long Pulse” function of the firearm effectively made it a two shot burst fire weapon, something which the Type 30 NSP was not.+After purchasing a [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:weapons:nmx_type_31_sidearm]] from a salvage company; [[stararmy:ranks:taisa]] [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro]] decided to perform an in-depth comparison between the abilities of the enemy firearm, the old [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_28]] which was still in use by some veteran soldiers in the Star Army, and the [[nekovalkyrja_service_pistol_type_30]] which served then as the Star Army’s current standard issue firearm.  While the NMX weapon was more technologically advanced and in theory had infinite energy, the abilities of the Yamataian weapons to reload quickly and use higher capacity batteries if desired offset the advancements due to the charging speed of the firearm in regular use.  However, the “Long Pulse” function of the firearm effectively made it a two shot burst fire weapon, something which the Type 30 NSP was not.
  
 In the end; Yaichiro decided that the modern Type 30 was rugged and could function well, but that the choice to remove fully automatic fire completely from the NSP when moving from the Type 28 to the Type 30 was overcompensation.  While the Full-Auto function in the Type 28 NSP was a power hog, Yaichiro decided that a burst fire function was necessary and pondered a compromise between the two classic weapons which closer matched the NMX’ weapon.  He also evaluated the actual circuitry and components in the pair of NSPs to find that the Type 30 NSP’s internal systems had not been significantly updated from those of the Type 28 NSP.  Both effectively used five year old technology, though [[characters:yamatai:hanako]]’s design had held up well. In the end; Yaichiro decided that the modern Type 30 was rugged and could function well, but that the choice to remove fully automatic fire completely from the NSP when moving from the Type 28 to the Type 30 was overcompensation.  While the Full-Auto function in the Type 28 NSP was a power hog, Yaichiro decided that a burst fire function was necessary and pondered a compromise between the two classic weapons which closer matched the NMX’ weapon.  He also evaluated the actual circuitry and components in the pair of NSPs to find that the Type 30 NSP’s internal systems had not been significantly updated from those of the Type 28 NSP.  Both effectively used five year old technology, though [[characters:yamatai:hanako]]’s design had held up well.
