Surikov RG-6 'Hailstorm' Rail Repeater
Crew-served rail repeater; sustained electromagnetic fire for area denial and suppression.
The RG-6 'Hailstorm' is Surikov Dynamics' crew-served rail repeater, a squad-level support weapon that trades the single-shot devaStation of the RG-9 for sustained electromagnetic fire. The Hailstorm uses a rotary rail assembly fed from a linked belt of penetrators, cycling rounds through the electromagnetic accelerator at a rate that produces a continuous stream of hypersonic impacts. Its capacitor bank is vehicle-mounted or backpack-fed, and the weapon requires a two-person crew: a gunner and a loader/power operator. The Hailstorm is designed for suppression, area denial, and engaging multiple light targets; it lacks the single-round penetration of the RG-9 but compensates with volume. Surikov sells the Hailstorm to military procurement and heavy PMC contracts; it is a restricted weapon, and its deployment signals a serious escalation in any engagement.
