[TFA][StarWars] Jajon Pack

Like any military pistol, the DC-15 was a fighter's last hope. However, unlike the DC-17, this pistol had an advantage in power and in skilled hands could replace the standard DC-15S blaster carbine. The pistol was developed by BlasTech Corporation before the Clone Wars specifically for soldiers with heavy weapons, such as the Z-6, RPS-6 or PLX-1, and pilots. But due to the high cost and complexity of operation, it was not put into mass production, so it could be seen extremely rarely on the battlefield, mainly with officers or lucky GAR fighters.

The DC-15D was developed by BlasTech specifically for use in the Grand Army of the Republic and was an attempt to create a universal version of the DC, retaining the power of the DC-15A in one mode and the rate of fire of the DC-15S in another, with average weight and volume. However, the experiment failed: the power was still insufficient for such a volume of tebana and energy consumption. At the same time, due to insufficient weight and length, in the enhanced mode it became more difficult to control the recoil, and the accuracy of shooting without a sight with large optics and weight increased. In the standard mode, it showed better results than the DC-15S, but it was still decided to release a limited batch to see how it would be used in combat. The first to use these blasters were the ARC forces, and they liked them for specific tasks: storming fortifications. Otherwise, they were suitable only in experienced hands. Therefore, BlasTech launched small-scale production of these blasters.

The blaster versions of the DC-16 were created primarily for the forces of the Grand Army of the Republic from among the citizens of the Republic. The pistol of this series was significantly lighter and simpler than the DC-17. The main feature of the DC-16 is the ability to fire fully automatically, which allows it to be used as a light carbine. However, the accuracy, range and power of the shot had to be “put” on the “altar” of the rate of fire. Speaking of power. The indicator of this “light” pistol turned out to be a third lower than that of the DC-17, one of the most popular models in the Grand Army of the Republic. Nevertheless, many militiamen and GAR recruits liked this pistol, since it allowed them not to shoot accurately in a critical situation, and pistols are used precisely for these tasks. That is why the BlasTech company began mass production of these blasters.

The DC-16A blaster rifle is an alternative to the bulky and heavy DC-15A and the low-speed, short-range DC-15S. Of course, the DC-15S was still the best even among the militia, but for recruits, volunteers in units operating not only on their planet or in the system, a more serious weapon was required. Given the poor training of the infantry and the technological progress of armored vehicles, the use of the DC-15S was irrational. The DC-16A was developed on the basis of the DC-16 pistol. As a continuation of the series, the built-in sight was removed from the blaster and the ability to install your own was added - from a collimator to an optical one, and it was also transferred to a fully automatic single-shot firing mode. The blaster was neither heavy nor light, quite inexpensive and easy to use. BlasTech immediately began mass production of blasters. It proved so successful that even some maneuverable clone squads began to use it.
