'''Sontaran blasters''' ([[TV]]: ''[[Mona Lisa's Revenge (TV story)|Mona Lisa's Revenge]]'') or '''Sontaran heavy duty laser rifles''' were a form of [[energy weapon]] used by the [[Sontaran]]s. They were powered by [[Cobalt Blue]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Old Soldiers (BBV audio story)|Old Soldiers]]'')


'''Sontaran blasters''' were a form of [[energy weapon]].
== Characteristics ==
Sontaran blasters fired a red energy burst that could kill a [[human]] with a single direct hit without leaving any signs of exterior damage. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Sontaran Stratagem (TV story)|The Sontaran Stratagem]]'' / ''[[The Poison Sky (TV story)|The Poison Sky]]'') They were also capaple of killing [[Rutan]]s. ([[GAME]]: ''[[The Gunpowder Plot (video game)|The Gunpowder Plot]]'')


The blasters were used to great effect in the [[Sontaran invasion of Earth]] in [[2009]] and proved a great weapon against [[UNIT]]. They fired a red energy burst that could kill a [[human]] with a single direct hit without leaving any signs of exterior damage. Despite being known as "[[laser]]s", the bolts travelled slower than light. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Sontaran Strategem]]'' / ''[[The Poison Sky]]'')
[[Commander]] [[Kaagh]] carried a submachine blaster, it was different than the other conventional blasters because of the size and was more compact. This gun also had a stunning setting as shown when Kaagh shot [[Sarah Jane Smith]] without killing or injuring her. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Last Sontaran (TV story)|The Last Sontaran]]'') A second gun of this type was able to disintegrate an organic target such as a [[Bane (Invasion of the Bane)|Bane]] with one shot. ([[TV]]: ''[[Enemy of the Bane (TV story)|Enemy of the Bane]]'')


[[Kaagh|Commander Kaagh]] carried a more compact version of the blaster with the same ultimate design. However its bolts were thicker and caused more damage. It also had a stun setting as shown when Kaagh shot Sarah Jane without killing or injuring her. Kaagh was forced to give it up to [[Sarah Jane Smith]] after his defeat on Earth. It now lies in her attic. ([[SJA]]: ''[[The Last Sontaran]]'') By the time Mrs Wormwood returned to earth teamed up with Kaagh he had aquired a new blaster, one that unlike any other sontaran blaster seen in the new series could literally cause enemies to dissintegrate with only a single shot. This has only been seen to work on the Bane and this may be an effect only applying to their species like the Slitheen and vinegar. 
Repeated hits from Sontaran blasters had the potential to endanger [[Dalek]]s of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]]. ([[GAME]]: ''[[Dalek Supremacy (video game)|Dalek Supremacy]]'')


[[Stike]], [[Varl]], and Turner were all carrying large rifles at one time. These may be one and the same with the Sontaran Blasters.
== History ==
Commander [[Stark (The Pandorica Opens)|Stark]] and his aides carried rifles when the Sontarans formed the [[Pandorica Alliance]] to trap the [[Eleventh Doctor]] in the [[Pandorica]] in [[102]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'') Like their wielders, these rifles were reduced to stone and dust following the [[Total Event Collapse]], but were later restored. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Big Bang (TV story)|The Big Bang]]'')
 
Beneath the storm drains of [[London]] in [[1605]], an army of Sontarans including [[Field Major]] [[Kaarsh]] patrolled with Sontaran blasters while searching for a [[Rutan Host|Rutan]] ship containing doomsday weapons targeted at Sontarans. When the [[Houses of Parliament]] was taken into [[Earth]] orbit with the Rutan doomsday weapons inside, they killed many Rutans inside Parliament with these blasters. ([[GAME]]: ''[[The Gunpowder Plot (video game)|The Gunpowder Plot]]'')
 
The rifles were used to great effect by members of the [[Tenth Sontaran Battle Fleet]] including Commander [[Skorr]], [[General]] [[Staal]]'s second-in-command, during the [[2009 Sontaran invasion of Earth|Sontaran invasion of Earth]] in [[2009]] and proved a great weapon against [[UNIT United Kingdom|UNIT]]. They fired a red energy burst that could kill a [[human]] with a single direct hit without leaving any signs of exterior damage. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Sontaran Stratagem (TV story)|The Sontaran Stratagem]]'' / ''[[The Poison Sky (TV story)|The Poison Sky]]'')
 
Commander [[Kaagh]] carried a submachine blaster during his mission to avenge the Tenth Sontaran Battle Fleet. He  was forced to give it up to Sarah Jane after his defeat on Earth. It now lies in her attic. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Last Sontaran (TV story)|The Last Sontaran]]'')
 
Kaagh created a new gun that looked identical to his original one but could now disintegrate an organic target with one shot. It was supposedly destroyed when Kaagh jumped into a [[wormhole]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Enemy of the Bane (TV story)|Enemy of the Bane]]'')
 
[[Clyde Langer]] later made a painting that featured Sontaran blasters similar to Kaagh's that was displayed in the [[International Gallery|London International Art Museum]]. The [[Mona Lisa]] used her powers to make the blaster real and she used it as a weapon. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mona Lisa's Revenge (TV story)|Mona Lisa's Revenge]]'')
 
It could also be used as a sniper rifle. Commander [[Jask (The End of Time)|Jask]] attempted to kill [[Martha Jones]] and [[Mickey Smith]] when they were searching for him. The [[Tenth Doctor]] hit Jask's [[probic vent]] before he could do so, knocking him out. ([[TV]]: ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'')
 
[[UNIT United Kingdom|UNIT]]'s [[Black Archive]] had a Sontaran blaster in its inventory, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'') which [[Missy]] "liberated". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Lumiat (audio story)|The Lumiat]]'')

This article needs a big cleanup.

Any information about the Sontaran guns seen in TV: The Two Doctors must be relocated at meson gun due to that weapon being a distinct model.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.
