The AW-7 is a rail/chemically/Impulse powered personal torpedo launcher, capible of firing 3-round bursts to guarentee a kill against most targets. Unlike previous design attempts, this is a reloadable, multi-round system, perfect for long-range operations and destruction of enemy assets.

The barrel comes equipped with a 6 inch vectored vent system in the rear to minimize backblasting from the ion charge from the magnetic, chemical, or impulse wake. The 2-inch cover on the front is replacable, sealing the interior of the system from the elements. While the on-board computer can deal with projectile homing, it deals more with thermal controls, thrust ratios, and arming of the projectiles. It is when the system is equipped with the AE-20 scope, the auto-targeting and homing features are fully acitvated. THe weapon's munitions are
