X-Pulse Lasers are an attempt by Inner Sphere technicians to increase the range of pulse lasers to compete with the longer ranges of similar Clan models.

X-Pulse lasers also build up tremendous heat but this has been considered by technicians as a necessary drawback. This weapon is currently still in its prototype stages.

X-Pulse Lasers are an attempt by Federated Commonwealth technicians to increase the range of pulse lasers to compete with the longer ranges of similar Clan models. X-Pulse lasers are not an new weapon per se, but an upgrade that is separately added to the weapon for an additional cost. X-Pulse lasers also build up tremendous heat but this has been considered by technicians as a necessary drawback.

Large X-Pulse Lasers are the biggest and deadliest of the X-Pulse lasers and though they build massive amounts of extra heat they boast the same range as a standard Large Laser.

Models

No production models are yet available, but the Federated Suns and Lyran Alliance are the most likely to start production.
