Based on the charged projectile technology behind the Yaeger's
Charge missiles, Charge mortars throw a charged shell, often to
very substantial distances. The AR-ZCharge model is one of the
older versions of this device, and is distinctly low tech, with
only the barest minimum of a target vectoring computer, and
requiring a two man crew. More advanced versions have far more
sophisticated targeting devices, can propel shells to longer
ranges, and have automatic loading capacity. The AR-ZCharge
remains in service because of it's rugged durability, it's ability
to throw shells of virtually every type, and it's relative
portability.
