| − | These [[Enhanced Prosthetic]] limbs were ones which concealed a weapon within the agent's arms, in this case a '''Needle''' which could retract behind hidden panels in the arm or hand. This hypodermic injector could be used to deliver a variety of poisons or other solutions into the target, and the ability to spot this concealed weapon was very difficult.<ref name=AGCO>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 110-111</ref>

| − | As with other prosthetic enhancements these were employed only by the intelligence agencies of the [[Inner Sphere]] with agents who already had a Type 3 or superior prosthetic limb. The [[Clans]] were too philosophically opposed and the [[Periphery]] too poor to make use of them beyond rare cases.<ref>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 109</ref> Among the [[Manei Domini]] this upgrade was available to all agents with the necessary prosthetic limb.<ref name=JHS>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 124-125, 130</ref>
