Tech weapons or tech guns are firearms that incorporate rail gun technology, firing solid high-velocity projectiles that are propelled with an electromagnetic charge. Although they have a slower rate of fire than other firearms, they more than make up for it with their awesome range and penetrating power.

Tech weapons utilize caseless ammunition, which is able to penetrate most personal armour, and even vehicle armour when subjected to a prolonged charge. Smart weapons, are weapons that employ gyrojet technology to fire caseless guided ammunition. Originally designed for orbital space battles, the smart guns have evolved into cutting-edge instruments of death, precise and efficient.
