F13-PK

== Description ==
The F13-PK has been the standard issue weapon for all Peacekeeper Special Forces androids since the new gun script was featured. The F13-PK excels in medium to close range combat, especially in close quarters combat.
==F-13 PKSF Weapon==
The F-13 is a weapon created by the AEGIS Research Division that utilizes fedoratomic material, originating from Fedorlite ore. The weapon is primarily used by the PKSF, though its early prototypes were used by a sub-division of MDF and the predecessor to the PKSF.
The Early prototype designs for the weapon were created long before the first physical prototypes were made, though the exact time of origin is unknown. The first physical prototypes to the weapon were created by ARD sometime after the creation of MDF. These first prototypes were clunky, having to accommodate for the amount of machinery required to actually fire the weapon. These first prototypes also had a low fire-rate due to the fact the machinery was still early in development. The next model was slightly smaller and was fitted with a scope in order to make it into a sniper-rifle to accommodate for the low fire rate. After a few more prototypes which slightly increased the fire rate and made the weapon much less clunky, the first combat-ready models were granted to certain members of the MDF Bravo Company and a handful of members of the Alpha Company. Eventually a more assault-rifle type prototype was made and given to the first cybernetic soldiers as part of “Project: Enhancement,” which would go to make the PKSF cyborgs. Shortly after the creation of the Peacekeeper Special Forces, a new model was ready. This model was an earlier version of the modern F-13, though had many similarities. Eventually that older model was replaced with the F-13, which is still used by the PKSF.
The F-13 contains a long shaft and is equipped with a scope for long-range shooting. The weapon can easily tear through armor if given enough shots, which is not too difficult due to the weapon’s faster fire rate. In the center of the weapon, three squares on each side show the Fedoratomic Chambers which power the weapon and its bullets. These holes function as ventilation for the weapon, as it can often produce a lot of heat. Overall the F-13 is an effective Fedoratomic-powered weapon. The weapon is utilized by the PKSF, and recent models frequently even contain chips connected to the holder PKSF’s cybernetic enhancements to improve coordination and accuracy.
=== Origin===
The origins of the F13-PK Pulse Rifle span back all the way to the creation of DEWs, or Direct Energy Weapons themself. The early versions of Direct Energy Weapons were created by the AEGIS Research Division, although early models fell into raider hands and became a weapon against their own creators. These early models evolved into the modern day Direct Energy Weapons, and their AEGIS counterpart, the standard issue to PKSF F13-PK Pulse Rifle, a weapon just as powerful as its early counterpart. The F-13 was originally designed as a compact and inexpensive replacement to the DEW-3C, which was time-consuming and costly to produce. However, due to the Resource War's beginning, the development of the F-13 was halted.
===Purpose===
The purpose of the F13-PK Pulse Rifle, and Direct Energy Weapons for that matter are to replace current weaponry, being standard to most normal weapons such as the G14, L118A1, etc. The Pulse Rifle is able to build up energy out of small particles in the air around it, and releases it. Currently, the Pulse Rifle is only able to hold a small amount of these particles to discharge at a current time, although with future advancements the options could be limitless. The production cost and risks of giving energy based weapons to all soldiers is too high to be mass produced. Currently the F13-PK Pulse Rifle is only given to PKSF, or Peace Keeper Special Forces as with their biological enhancements they are much better candidates for this weapon, rather than standard combatants. Unlike its DEW counterpart, the F13-PK Pulse Rifle was designed for protection, but still having lots of firepower for defensive measures.
===Version 1.0===
The first version of the F-13 went into production under the AEGIS Research Division, and was re-designed to fit a cyborg or mechanical soldier, rather than an organic one. The weapon was re-named the F-13-PK, and was to be used primarily by PKSF soldiers. The weapon was powerful in comparison to guns like the G36C or the G14, but comparatively average compared to more traditional laser weapons, like the DEW-3C. The weapon overheated fairly quickly in comparison to more human-based guns (like the aforementioned DEW-3C), but this was a non-issue to cyborg or mechanical-based entities like the PKSF.
