[edit] Characteristics

Smaller in scale than the DC-15A rifle, the DC-15S lacked its larger cousin's range, but was easier to handle than the bulkier "A" variant. The DC-15S also featured a folding stock for enhanced aiming with braced firing. DC-15 blasters fired charged plasma bolts, activated by Tibanna gas carried in replaceable blaster cartridges. These gas cartridges lasted for around 500 shots, depending on the weapon's power settings.

[edit] History

The DC-15S was widely used during the Clone Wars, though most notably in the conflict's final days. The design of the DC-15S would later be enhanced by BlasTech for the introduction of the E-11 blaster rifle, commonly known as the "stormtrooper rifle".
