The Ke-M2-3701 Aether Saber is a combination hull-cutting tool and anti-armor weapon developed in YE 37 by Ketsurui Fleet Yards. Inspired by the Ke-M2-W2901 Aether Beam Saber-Rifle, the Aether Saber projects a stream of Aether up to 3 meters from a roughly blade shaped projector. Due to being able to cut into a starship's armor, it is a vital tool in boarding operations.
Created in YE 37, it was derived from the Ke-M2-W2901 Aether Beam Saber-Rifle's saber so that the cutting could be done separately. It has been used to open airlocks and cut into hull plate to assist boarding operations.
The Aether Saber is essentially a cut down Aether Blade-Saber rifle, modified to fit into a handle and projector that can fit into the hand of an armor. The hilt is a fairly utilitarian handle with a guarded switch to prevent accidental activation or deactivation. The bottom of the unit has a rectangular socket for a BR-28 battery cell, and a cord that allows the unit to connect to the forearm projectors of the Mindy 2. While most of the weapon's casing is rubber coated Durandium Alloy, the blade projector contains a Zesuaium edge that allows the Aether Saber to be used to block and parry other Aether Sabers. The Saber can be controlled by the Armor connected to it.
The bottom 1/3rd of the device is the power receptacle. The receptacle has plugins to plug into the Ke-M2-2D "Mindy II" Power Armor forearm projectors for power, as well as a slot for a BR-28 Series Battery Magazine. Using the BR-28 the Aether Saber can operate for 10 minutes of cumulative use.
