SECRET // SPECIAL ACCESS REQUIRED - BRONZE FREESTYLE AQUA
EYESONLY • ORCON • REL TO NATO, FVEY



CHRISTINE HAWK is an EBE artifact recovered during the first BRONZE FREESTYLE contact (ref: Operation ESSENTIAL NOMAD).  It weighs 2.0 kg and is composed of a dull bronze metallic substance.  It is constructed in the form of a bracer sized for a BRONZE FREESTYLE forearm.  It has no apparent mechanism of attachment or closure and was removed from the first recovered BRONZE FREESTYLE specimen during xenopsy.

CHRISTINE HAWK is a humanoid-portable plasma weapon.  Use on a human subject (ref: Associate COUSTEAU) at a range of approximately 10m generated a wound track 3mm wide and 30mm deep, surrounded by second- and third-degree burns to an additional radius of 10-20mm.  Rate of fire, maximum effective range, and dissipation of the plasma packet at greater ranges are unknown.

The artifact's plasma emission channel is obvious but it lacks physical controls or a sighting mechanism.  Given its obvious design for BRONZE FREESTYLE, it may engage with this species of EBE through a mechanism not currently observable.
