================================================================================================
Overview:
    Though the Particle Projector Cannon was already a fearsome weapon, in 2751 it became even
    more so when an extended-range model was introduced to the Inner Sphere. Though it generated
    even more heat, the even longer range potential meant that snipers could now become problems
    even further back on the field for their targets.

Capabilities:
    The Capellan Confederation was an early adopter of this technology and opted to use it on a
    testbed of their own just a year after the ER PPC debuted. The design concept behind it had
    already been used extensively in more legendary BattleMechs like the Marauder and Warhammer
    and it was perhaps for this reason that the Lu Bu did not remain in the hearts or memories
    of warriors like the others.
