X277 "Viper" Magnetic Rail Cannon

The X277 "VIPER" magnetic rail cannon was developed for the U.S. Military by West-Tek. Also commonly refered to as a "railgun", the weapon uses energy cells to propel a depleted uranium round across a series of magnets discharging it at extremely high velocity. Deemed too costly to produce on a mass scale, the project was abandoned in 2044. The only known prototype was displayed in the Washington, D.C. Museum of Technology in 2077.
