RECON drone

More details: A small and lightweight drone that easily fits into your bag pack. It is equipped with an array of sensors (IR-vision, ...) and can be controlled through the PDA. The main use of this drone is to explore rooms without putting your own life on the line.
Combat drone
Ammo: Internal Battery
More details: A small and lightweight drone based on tech recovered from the alien drones. This drone can be controlled through the PDA and features a light plasma gun.
You guys brought back working prototypes of alien drones (thanks to BFett and Foreigner), so you'll be getting replicas of them. I was actually thinking of controlling the alien-esque ones mentally via the PSI pack I'll be putting in before the next mission.

Designed especially for people from backwards planets where civilisation disappeared long ago, this spear is shaped from carbon composite and houses a large multi-segmented super-capacitor inside the handle. Electricity is released upon impact, killing living beings and frying electronics. There's enough charge for several hundreds actuations, and it can easily be re-charged on the home base. Note: don't charge it from a portable device as it'll drain the battery in milliseconds.
Too OP as a standard 0-cred infantry weapon. May include it as a higher-priced infantry weapon, but no promises. This one's a bit powerful - even a light graze (or in some instances, a total miss) is enough to kill.

An infantry weapon that uses tech borrowed from the proton sword. It features its own power source and is able to cut through most (or a lot) of things.
Same as above. Awesome idea, super OP, might not work as a 0-cred infantry weapon and I'll need to give it some serious thought if we're going to use it as anything else. (same as above) The question here would be, "If you have the money, why the heck would you ever want anything less?"

The ultimate in grenade shaped weapons.
Throw this at your opponent, and it'll release a noxious gas which renders most carbon based lifeforms unconscious.
At which point most combatants participate in the eons old tradition of "Teabagging", hence the name.
I think we have something similar already.

Can definitely put that in for you, CSE. Of course they'll be mostly useless except for ^ko, but still.
