The '''RISC Hyper Laser''' is an experimental heavy laser derived from the Clan's [[Improved Heavy Laser]] family. It is very prone to explosion, thus the Hyper Laser project is being considered for cancellation.

Hyper Lasers are the ultimate development in heavy laser technology, but it was constructed by the [[RISC]] engineers, instead of the Clans. Thanks to pushing the limits in laser shielding and plasma lasing chemistry, the Hyper Laser is a very destructive and extreme range weapon, but the immense thermal and physical stress make this weapon very prone to explosive malfunction.

This flaw showed up during one of the "false flag" operations in ''[[Savage Wolf (Mad Cat Mk IV)|Mad Cat Mk IV]]''s equipped with Hyper Lasers, where weapons explosions turned the tide of battle against that 'Mech and likely, could contribute to cancellation of the weapons project.

One of the first operations identifying this weapon pitted a Mad Cat Mk IV against four '[[Mech]]s, destroying two of them, a ''[[Catapult]]'' and a ''[[Jackalope]]'', though the Mech exploded once it was defeated.<ref>''3135 PDA Journals'', p. 138-139 "22 December 3135"</ref>
