[hider=Guardian] AAT-003D Ferir MKII 'Guardian' Role: Defensive Operations Chassis: Medium Engine: ? Operating Time: ? Description: An earlier model of the mass produced Ferir MkII MAS, the MkII 'D' lacks many of the improvements made later to increase maneuvrability and speed of the newer models. Unlike the Ferir MkIIM, the MkIIB is a bit larger, has five sensors on its larger but flatter head and is more bulky in its appearance. In all other aspects, this unit is identical to the Ferir MkII 004C. The Guardian configuration prototype of the Ferir was used to field test various defensive systems, before being integrated into the modern MkII variant. By default, it has virtually no offensive capabilities, but a large suite of defensive measures, relying on its large shield to protect both itself and allies from enemy fire. Systems Alloy Shield(Tombstone): (6 WT) A large, angled solid slab of alloy molded for your MAS to hold. These plates provide protection in a singular direction- that is, whichever direction you are pointing the shield, and are often coated with special solutions to help it resist energy and plasma. The tombstone is a special design of the shield, as it's V shaped with the handle on the inside. This provided a much greater chance of diverting beam and plasma weapons away from the shield, but the bulky, heavy design was ultimately dropped in favour of more standard shields, with some stockpiles of it remaining at old testing sites. Energy Shields(Class 5): (10 WT, 15 PWR) A large scale shield generator, Class 5 shields are most often mounted on Heavy and Ultra class MAS's. The protection it provides is much higher than that of normal shields, and is able to protect against small amounts of sustained plasma fire before failing. Stealth Drive(5 PWR): - Stealth Drives allow a MAS to remain hidden from most scanning and targeting modules, and removes most of the MAS's emissions at the cost of a small amount of maximum thrust. It does not however protect the MAS from visual recognition. Medium Dagger(3 WT): Suited for close combat, the Guardian model was equipped with a single dagger, intended to be used as a last resort only. Heavy Machine Gun (14.7mm)(1 WT): A heavy machinegun is mounted in the Guardian's head, used as an effective anti infantry and anti missile measure. The machinegun is fed via an external magazine with 2500 rounds, located on the Ferir's lower back. Countermeasure System: - Countermeasure systems are often used by lighter MAS's to avoid missiles instead of using body mounted machine guns to intercept them. Using chaff and flares, countermeasure systems are negligible in terms of weight and power, but only has 3 chaff uses, and 6 sets of flares before needing to rearm. External Camonetting: A simple set of camouflage nets carried by the MAS on its back, its sole purpose is to conceal the machine from visual identification. The Guardian carries several sets of these nets, each suited for a different environment. The camonetting can be augmented by using local resources from the combat area to make it more effective.

[/hider] [hider=Breacher] AAT-007AJ Hardballer 'Breacher' Role: Support, Heavy Offensive Operations Chassis: Heavy Engine: ? Operating ? Description: The AAT-007A Hardballer is an early model of the mass produced MkI M, boasting the same heavy armour and capable of being fitted for various tasks. The Hardballer is used by the Coalition to provide heavy firepower and devastation to an assault force, and this test unit was used to test heavy weaponry and other technology too heavy for smaller MASs. The Breacher model was used to test various siege weaponry by the Coalition, with the 007P model, equipped with dual plasma cannons, later going into mass production as the MkI M. The Jackals removed most of the heavy weapons on this model in order to improve its defensive capabilities, creating the new designation and significantly extending its operational time. Due to the various modifications done to the chassis, the 007A is incapable of flight. Systems ? Heavy Alloy Plating (7 WT) a more complex layer of thick armor covering the MAS's extremities, as well as folding over the cockpit when in use. Heavy Alloy plates provide considerably more protection, and are much more durable than light plates. Able to survive a single hit from a plasma weapon, but only provides little protection from explosives. Directional Class 5 Energy Shields(10 WT/15 PWR): Typically the prime method of defending a MAS, a MAS energy shield is a thin barrier of energy that coats the exterior of the MAS. Easily dissipating laser weapons, shields offer varying levels or protection against the more common ballistic and plasma weapons. All generators come with quick-recharge capacity. The shields fitted by the Jackals on the Breacher have an uncommon feature: the pilot may redirect the shield generator to create a powerful shield in six areas around the mech (front, rear, left, right, top, bottom), capable of taking much more damage than usual, but disabling protection on all other sectors on the MAS. By default the shields function as any other generator. Countermeasure System: - Countermeasure systems are often used by lighter MAS's to avoid missiles instead of using body mounted machine guns to intercept them. Using chaff and flares, countermeasure systems are negligible in terms of weight and power, but only has 3 chaff uses, and 6 sets of flares before needing to rearm. Lockheed Streaker Missile System (3 WT/2 PWR): This specialized missile system drops the heavy and slow missiles for a larger amount of medium missiles, easily capable of blanking an area when fired with the Breacher configuration. Two shoulder mounted launchers each carry 24 missiles, each capable of destroying a light mech and damage a medium mech, but being almost ineffective against Heavy and Ultra classes. Twin P170 Type-11 Plasma Cannons (14 WT/18 PWR): - A heavy plasma cannon utilized by the Hardballer, the P170 is primarily designed to take on and destroy naval vessels, though can be extremely devastating when used against a MAS. Unlike the P110, which launches highly concentrated, high speed bolts, the P170 launches a relatively slow but devastating blast that deals incredible damage over a large area. - The bolts from the P170 are more easily dodged by Light MAS's and are generally used against ships and the largest of MAS's. These were retrofitted onto the MAS by the Jackals as part of the rebuild. Heavy Machine Gun (14.7mm)(1 WT): A heavy machinegun is mounted in the Guardian's head, used as an effective anti infantry and anti missile measure. The machinegun is fed via an external magazine with 2500 rounds, located on the 007As lower back. [/hider] [hider=Kolibri] ? Role: ? Chassis: ? Engine: ? Operating Time: ? Description: ? Systems ?
