energy is let to 'radiate' out of the coils to avoid | |||
overload.<br> | |||
This reduces the life span of the energy pack by some | |||
25%-35% and causes the coils to glow visible light | |||

The II-D provides for precision fire with an imaging | |||
scope and a projected low powered laser beam for rapid | |||
short, range target acquisition.<br> | |||
Targeting information can also be displayed on the | |||
Pallas Helmet. The user has the choice of setting | |||

through the helmet.<br> | |||

MAINTENANCE:</b><br> | |||
The weapon's frame is cast into its shape and is thus | |||
nearly invulnerable to any bending or damage without | |||
using power tools. The weapon cannot be dismantled | |||
without first removing the power pack to eliminate | |||
any accidents. <br> | |||
The emitter crystal is 'grown' into the frame to eliminate | |||
any possible misalignment due to rough treatment and | |||
the circuitry is located around the frame allowing | |||
the frame to be removed by opening the front of the | |||
weapon and just pulling it out for maintenance.<br> | |||
Other circuitry frames are located in two casings | |||
on both sides of the frame to facilitate fast repair | |||
and easy access.<br> | |||
<br> | |||
<b>NOTES:</b><br> | |||
All Marines are to wear their II-D at all times when | |||
on duty and not in the field, and whenever possible | |||
off duty, except in situations where a sidearm would | |||
be inappropriate.<br> | |||
The II-B is available both to and through TAC/SC for | |||
rapid fire support of Tactical operations, at the | |||
authorizatiuon of the TAC/SC for the station or ship.</font></p> | |||

Marine Sidearm- Phaser Mark II-D |
The II-D was intended as supplementary side arm for Marine
usage that would be capable of operating as a main
weapon for troopers without a rifle, as well as a
less obtrusive weapon. Design goals stated it should be able to duplicate
the firing rate of the Jem'hadar weapons and allow
area saturation fire against hard to locate targets
without loss of stopping power. The design should
be easily maintained and modular in design to allow
fast repair on the field with spare modules. 3. Length: 30.5 cm ~12 inch
Targeting information can also be displayed on the
Pallas Helmet. The user has the choice of setting
rate of fire and power setting either manually, or
through the helmet.
