Enlisted | ROKS-3

The ROKS-3 is a typical portable flamethrower. It has a single cylindrical fuel tank with a filling aperture centrally located at the top and a battlefield filler with compressed nitrogen attached to the side. A spring loaded, pressure release valve is located beside the filling aperture. A hose connects the ignition cartridges in an ignition cylinder that advances automatically after a shot to bring the next unfired cartridge into the firing position. The ROKS-3 carries 10 igniters and has a total firing duration of 5-6 seconds.
