It is a simple hunk of metal, painted to a moody green or dangerous voidsuits purple and blacks.
It has a lower block chance than the real deal, but it is still a strong help against melee foes and the occasional beam or two. Do mind that those seem to be a lot squishier since the AI update.
And just like any tacticool object, it has a big flashlight stuck at the front to help with visibility, it's not like you can actually see much out of that slit.
You can order two for 80 points at cargo.
It actually starts in the pathfinder locker, meaning they decide whether or not it will be used.
