Introduced in [[2620]] by the [[Terran Hegemony]]. The '''Extended-Range Large Laser''' (ER Large Laser) focuses a powerful beam of light on targets that causes damage by overheating or melting the target.<ref name="TMp226"/>

}}
+
As the name suggests, the Extended-Range variant of the [[Large Laser]] increases the power of the beam to project it to much farther ranges. The power necessary to facilitate the production of such generates a greatly increased quantity of waste heat.
  
−
==Description==
+
As with most Clan energy weapons, the Clans lack their own standard Large Laser.
−
Laser is an acronym for 'Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.' When used as a weapon, an extended range large laser damages its target by concentrating extreme heat on a small area. The ER large laser is considered too large to be utilized by infantry.

Description[edit]

Introduced in 2620 by the Terran Hegemony. The Extended-Range Large Laser (ER Large Laser) focuses a powerful beam of light on targets that causes damage by overheating or melting the target.[1]

As the name suggests, the Extended-Range variant of the Large Laser increases the power of the beam to project it to much farther ranges. The power necessary to facilitate the production of such generates a greatly increased quantity of waste heat.

As with most Clan energy weapons, the Clans lack their own standard Large Laser.

Manufacturing[edit]

The Extended-Range Large Laser is manufactured on the following planets:

Blankenburg[edit]

The Blankenburg ER Large Laser is Star League era weapon.
