Lore[ | ]

The original R-97CN is intrinsically linked with orbital boarding; it was designed to provide heavy fire in confined, low-gravity spaces, essential for the Colonial Navy (the military arm of the Interstellar Colonial Authority) during boarding missions in high orbit. When former members of the Colonial Navy went freelance and ultimately joined the Mercenary Syndicate, the R-97CN was still so beloved that the organization commissioned a new model. Now the virtually indistinguishable R-99 is a common sight throughout the Outlands.

Originally designated and manufactured by the Lastimosa Armory as the R-97CN A3, the R-99 SMG was intended for use with the Frontier Colonial Navy, hence the "CN" classification. Chambered in the quite old 5.8x42mm, it would often be used by the Colonial Navy when conducting Orbital Boarding Parties on hostile ships in high orbit or entering the atmosphere, so they needed a weapon platform that was compact and had the ability to spit lead downrange in low gravity or extremely confined areas such as cockpits or ship corridors.[1]
