"The Jackal fires up to three rounds that stick to any surface, and are remote triggered for detonation. Perfect for setting up traps and destroying objectives from a safe distance."
The Jackal is an unlockable primary weapon for the Infiltrator. The Jackal is based off of the Raider's Arx Buster, and was originally named the Remote Arx Buster. The Jackal fires three rounds that are remotely detonated by reloading the weapon. The weapon does not fire all three rounds at the same time or automatically fire them back to back, the player controls when each round is fired.
