"Impact" repulsor cannon

The "Impact" repulsor cannon, also known simply as the Impact cannon, was a model of repulsor cannon manufactured by Nova Design Arms. Designed as an alternative to other forms of non-lethal weaponry, the Impact cannon utilized a modified speeder bike repulsorlift to fire tight, narrow beams of energy to disrupt a target's actions at medium ranges. However, this effect only lasted as long as the beam remained focused on the target. Nova Design engineers installed a short-ranged grapple onto the weapon to help stabilize it. The Impact cannon's design was inspired by makeshift repulsor guns.
Costing 1,000 credits and considered inferior to other non-lethal forms of weaponry, the "Impact" repulsor cannon became popular among law enforcement agencies and bounty hunters who were concerned about collateral damage while trying to subdue a difficult target. In addition, the weapon's ability to pacify targets allowed bounty hunting teams to use unconventional tactics to capture their targets. The Impact cannon was particularly helpful against Wookiees, Trandoshans, and Gamorreans.
