The KG Mk 34 Antipersonnel Flame Mortar Launcher is a turret-mounted incendiary mortar weapon in the service of the United Nations Space Command.[1]
Overview[edit]
Functionality[edit]
They serve as an optional mounting on the M5 Talos prefabricated base turret system, intended for use as an anti-infantry defence to bolster the turret's standard M202 XP machine guns.[1] In operation, the KG Mk.34 fires a small incendiary charge into the air in a parabolic arc—lighting into flame on contact with a surface and causing a small amount of splash damage.[2]
History[edit]
During the Harvest campaign on February 4, 2531, Epsilon Base had its turrets upgraded to include KG Mk.34, where the flamethrower fuel ratio was optimized.[3]
