The E-11 medium blaster rifle, more commonly known as the E-11 blaster rifle was a light but powerful blaster rifle manufactured by BlasTech Industries. Although a Nihil of Krix Kamerat's cell used a similarly-designed blaster during the attack on Takodana of the High Republic Era, the E-11 was only created during the Imperial Era. The DAS-430 Neural Inhibitor was also of a similar design.
It served as the standard issue weapon of Imperial stormtroopers, including remaining clone troopers still active under the Empire. Some Imperial Army troopers, including some members of the normal infantry, swamp troopers, and Imperial security troopers, were also equipped with it. The E-11 was the successor to BlasTech's E-10 blaster rifle and was based on the DC-15A blaster carbine used by clone troopers during the Clone Wars.

The E-11 blaster rifle combined lethal firepower with impressive range and a versatile design. Featuring three power settings; lethal, stun, and sting, the rifle proved useful for a variety of combat situations. An advanced cooling system resulted in the blaster's superior performance, especially useful for its fully automatic fire setting. The E-11 also included a telescopic range-finding sight and a folding three-position stock, which could convert the blaster into a full-length rifle and could be modified to house a glowrod. Its standard issue power cells carried energy for 200 shots however the rifle could also be loaded with plasma cartridges that could last for more than 500 shots.
