10mm Very Low Drag

Designed in YE 37 as a replacement for the smaller ammo used by the LASR, the Yamatai 10mm VLD is an enlarged version of the 7mm boat-tail slug with added technological improvements to increase its flexibility in various combat situations. While a larger and heavier round, the 10mm VLD's main improvement is the increased muzzle velocity it is fired at coupled with a new shape designed to minimize drag. The 10mm VLD Ammunition is designed to be fired from a rifled barrel, accepting the trade offs of power in exchange for accuracy and range.

High Explosive Incendiary Armor Piercing

The HEIAP Round is a special general purpose round designed for use in situations where stealth and collateral damage are not a major concern. The round is composed of an incendiary component stacked at the tip of the round, followed by a high explosive material, and finally a Nerimium penetrator. The HEIAP round is designed to detonate on contact with a target, causing thermal and concussive shocks to β€œclear” the way before the Nerimium penetrator component impacts. The HEIAP round has a weight of 20 grams, and does Tier 5 or Tier 6, Medium Anti-Armor or Heavy Anti-Armor (FIXME: Staff needs to determine which)/Fred DR 4 damage.
