Shoulder-Fired Launcher, Anti-Armor Missile, Type 30

The Shoulder-fired Launcher, Anti-armor Missile, Type 30, commonly known by its acronym SLAM, is a four-barreled, shoulder-fired missile launcher designed for use by unarmored infantry troops in battles against troops with power armor, or for use against low flying aerospace craft. It is protected against scalar attacks via a neutralizing electrogravity emitter system.

SLAM artwork

The SLAM carries four mid-size missiles; these missiles are much larger than the small mini-missiles used by power armor and more powerful. The missiles are fired by aiming the weapon at a target, holding the safety tab forward (with the thumb) and pulling the trigger. Recoil is medium. Do not stand behind someone firing this launcher; you could be seriously burned. To reload, simply drop the new missiles (tail first) into the front of the launcher; they'll automatically be held in place until firing.
