The Extended-Range Particle Projector Cannon augments the range of a standard Particle Projector Cannon, increasing it's effectiveness. The potential of the ion beam fired by the PPC is increased, allowing ER PPCs to reach much farther ranges than their standard variants. However, the energy required to amplify the potential of an already powerful weapon greatly increases the strain on the heat capacity of any combat unit. As with most Clan energy weapons, no Clan standard PPC exists.
