TrooperPX Weapon Database

TrooperPX: The Worlds Most Complete Starship Troopers Reference Collection.
Now, every bug encountered and every weapon used in the Starship Troopers universe, here in one place. If you think I've overlooked or forgotten something... give me a name and image so I can add it to the database.

From the back drawer of the designers desk come the concept sketches and
artwork that shaped the movie Starship Troopers.

Here are the weapons from Verhoeven's film Starship Troopers.

Weapon image -	Statistics
MX-90 Grenade	Fragmentation grenade Large area effect Very high damage Intel Brief: Filled with HBE, the MX-90 fragmentation grenade is a standard weapon in the arsenal of each MI trooper. This grenade is detonated the "old-fashion" way of arming and detonating the bomb, using the remote detonator.
Knife
MI Armor
MKI Morita Smart Rifle	Automatic 7.62 mm Point effect Medium damage 30 rounds/clip Intel Brief: This is the standard Mobile Infantry (MI) 7.62 mm assault rifle. It has great range and has demonstrated flexibility in all combat conditions, including underwater warfare. Several rounds fired directly into Warrior bug nerve center will stop him, and probably kill, instantly. Fragmentation weapon Light area effect High damage 10 shells/pack Intel Brief: In the last 8 years, with some design changes, Morita remained one of the most popular bullet-based weapons. Older models had an option of blast fire; from the add on attached under the barrel. New model of this shotgun addon has enhanced range with somewhat smaller effect radius, and it fires very deadly fragmentation shells. However, improved efficiency of this weapon requires all Morita's aiming and loading system resources, so 7.62 mm rounds cannot be fired while this addon is active. Barrel of the shotgun needs to be pulled back into the body of the weapon before the further firing of 7.62's is possible. Boot camp training includes shotgun mount/unmount practices. Time needed for unmounting ranges from 0,75 to 2.5 seconds. ( statistic data, including training and combat situations ) Powerful blast from the shotgun can be used efficiently against Warrior bugs in close combat, or to take down incoming Hopper bug.
MKI Morita Carbine	Automatic 7.62 mm Point effect Medium damage 30 rounds/clip Intel Brief: This is the alternate Mobile Infantry (MI) 7.62 mm assault rifle. Without the shotgun assembly, it is more compact and preferred by Fleet.
MKI Sniper Morita	Automatic 7.62 mm Point effect Medium damage 30 rounds/clip Intel Brief: This is the sniper version of the Mobile Infantry (MI) 7.62 mm assault rifle... Combined with the scope/infrared sensor package for sniper/night "surgical" missions.
MK55 Nuke Launcher	Rocket (H) weapon Large area shock High incineration effect Deadly assessment Intel Brief: The MK55 Tactical Nuclear Launcher is a hand-held, shoulder-fired projectile launcher. Usage: Upon the launch, special scanner with will report you back your current distance from the projectile, and warn you when you are in the range, with a distinctive sound signal. It will also warn you if a detonation was detected, and alert you if you are in the heat wave zone.
N2 Nukes	Rocket (H) weapon Large area shock High incineration effect Deadly assessment Intel Brief: Progress of the conflict resulted in a breakthrough with the construction of new "N2" projectiles. Experiments with new elements, mainly from the LAMBDA twin-star system, have produced a warhead with a minimal emission of alpha, beta and gamma rays, thus lowering the radiation factor to virtual zero. Danger radius of "N2" warhead is somewhat lower than the older warheads had (1000m from the ground zero as opposed to the 3000 m from the ground zero ), but that can be considered as a positive characteristic. Older, MN 3, MN 4 and MN 5 warheads are still in general usage. Ground zero of the detonation has all other standard characteristics of the nuclear explosion. After the white flash of light, that could blind you if you look exactly at it, comes the shockwave and then the heat wave, that sets anything nearby on fire.
Tereshkova Rifle	Seen in the last moments of the film... Only referred to in the script as the "New Morita". Popular speculation leads us to believe this is a Microwave Accelerated Particle Rifle, MAP-Rifle or "MAP-R". The level of military technology shown in the film, would make this the "next generation" in the Morita family. And the devastating effect in the demonstration, would also support this. Lacking a Civilian name, let's call it the Tonshi Rifle (Japanese for "sudden death"... and coincidentally, the sound it makes when fired.).
