| - The DMR-R Sniper Rifle, fully known as the Designated Marksman Rifle - Reconnaissance Sniper Rifle, was the sniper rifle configuration of the Advanced IMFW System. It allowed for long-range incapacitation of small populations of enemy personnel, and allowed a stormtrooper commando team to advance with long-range cover fire from a dedicated sharpshooter armed with a DMR-R Sniper Rifle. The DMR-R Sniper Rifle could operate either on standard field-issue Tibanna Gas or specialized sniper-adapted organic derivatives allowing for lesser recoil. Most of its volume was taken up by amorphous hybrid alloy that was smart-linked with thermo-dynamic morphology controllers and the small cognitive chip built into the DMR-R Sniper Rifle. The alloy could have its shape slightly changed by the dynamic controller, and when the rifle fired, the alloy slightly adjusted to take most of the recoil. Internal gyroscopes also allowed for further recoil dampening to assure maximum accuracy. A Mk. III Mod 0 TriLight sighting system was mounted on the topside of the DMR-R, allowing for 2x, 6x, and 12x electronic magnification under all conditions, and even sighting in the visual, infrared (night vision), and radiological spectrum. Certain sharpshooters further customized their TriLight systems with further phased lenses for specialized operations. The DMR-R also had a SmartSense chip that detected wind condition and elevation and appropriately adjusted for wind and target differential altitudes. The barrel had embedded cryogenic cooling to insure perfect dissipation of heat after a shot. Therefore, if the sniper was armored with thermally reflective armor plating, enemy spotters with thermal scopes would be unable to find the sniper even after a discharge. The barrel could be mounted with a variety of graphite-based suppressor sheaths to conceal the audio signature of a sniper rifle shot, allowing for "hostile enemy command personnel covert disruption" - assassination of enemy commanders without revealing the location of the sniper.
