[@Pathfinder] Hope you don't mind, I was a fan of the Paladin you made, so I made a reference to it in my mech, and also followed the decidedly knight like naming convention. [hider=Sara Hawkins] [img]http://i.imgur.com/zDAUyKo.jpg[/img] [color=coral]Name:[/color] Sara 'Rabbit' Hawkins [color=coral]Age:[/color] 25 [color=coral]Origin:[/color] Therux State [color=coral]Height:[/color] 5'4" [color=coral]Weight:[/color] 125 lbs [color=coral]Backstory:[/color] Working [color=coral]Tactical Preference & Skills:[/color] Sara is one of the sharpest pilots in the Therux Air Corps and isn't afraid to let anyone know it. She's clocked in countless hours of simulation and firsthand experience, and has qualified with the I-22, I-47, and AS-64 Mechs. She's got keen eyes, has memorized countless maneuvers, and can hum for you the exact tone a Serpent missile makes when it confirms radar lock. Sara is scrappy and adaptable, but generally moves to clear out enemy air cover first so she can assert control over the local airspace and provide cover to her allies.

Designed for air to air, as well as air to ground and general combat, this cannon is a versatile weapon that deals consistent damage at most ranges. The XBR uses a linkless feed system to maintain high rates of fire without jamming, and uses removable 500 round magazines. The XBR fires in semi automatic, 5 round burst, and fully automatic, and has two selectable firing speeds of 1000 RPM and 1500 RPM. The AS-64 typically carries one spare magazine.[/list] [indent][color=lightblue]Hand Slot 2:[/color][/indent][list][*][b][color=lightblue]T-2 Combat Shield[/color][/b] - A medium sized, lightweight alloy shield treated with anti-plasma beam coating provides the Chevalier with limited directional protection from oncoming fire. Mounted to the forearm instead of the hand itself, it can be rotated and shifted on the Chevalier's arm, leaving the hand open to carry other items- though not weapons. In addition, the T-2 combat shield features a pair of plasma 'claws' at its base, allowing the shield to be used as a melee weapon. [*][b][color=lightblue](Alternate) D20 Munitions Launcher[/color][/b] - For strike missions, the Chevalier often forgos the T-2 combat shield for a D20 Launcher. Essentially a mech sized rocket launcher, the D20 uses a rear fed 4-rocket magazine. These rockets are only slightly guided with path correction capabilities as opposed to homing capabilities. Packing a powerful explosive warhead, these rockets are designed to incapacitate heavily armored mechs. [/list] [indent][color=lightblue]Sub Weapon Slot:[/color][/indent][list][*][b][color=lightblue]Chin Mounted XM921 Rotary Gun[/color][/b] - Mounted on the chin of the AS-64 Chevalier is a XM921 Rotary Gun. Firing 7.62mm rounds, the XM921 is generally ineffective against other Mechs and other heavily armored targets though sustained fire can still cause damage. It is used primarily for point defense and anti-personnel roles. It has an internal 1000 round magazine and can fire at toggle-able rates of 2000 RPM and 6000 RPM[/list] [indent][color=lightblue]Shoulder/Back Spot:[/color][/indent][list][*][b][color=lightblue]Serpent Missile System[/color][/b] - advanced missile launcher system used by the Chevalier. Launching 3 Serpent Missiles from under each wing, these fast, highly maneuverable AA missiles pack a surprising punch, able to make 90 degree turns, and capable of knocking most flying mech's out of the sky with a single missile. While not particularly devastating, these small guided missiles are more than capable of crippling a mech's flight capabilities, essentially spelling death for other fliers. Against ground targets, it is rather lackluster in damage when compared to other missiles, and has difficulty tracking small ground targets. Serpent Missiles are impact safe, allowing them to be safely carried under the wings. [/list] [indent][color=lightblue]Gadget Slot:[/color][/indent][list][*][b][color=lightblue]Advanced Countermeasure System[/color][/b] - Designed to combat anti-air systems, the Therux State ACS is essentially a miniature missile launcher, that detects oncoming heat signatures and launches guided munitions to counter and neutralize the oncoming threat, along with a spray of flares and chaff for pesky micro-missile style weapons. [*][b][color=lightblue]Supercruise/Afterburner System[/color][/b] - Advanced propulsion systems allow the Chevalier to maintain supersonic 'cruising' speeds at Mach 1.5, and at full burn can temporarily reach speeds of Mach 2.

These machines as a result are rather small in number and fairly expensive, utilizing powerful Hybrid Generators and advanced weapon systems. Replacing the effective, but aging I-47 Lancer, the Chevalier was designed to be a high-mobility air platform, and one of the few machines designed by Therux from the ground up to be a military machine, as opposed to a repurposed civilian machine. It is designed to fulfill deep strike missions, as well as escort and intercept missions, as opposed to frontline conflict, and its thinner than average armor and high mobility makes it difficult for inexperienced pilots to handle. Chevaliers are often used in tandem with Therux's more durable TMX-34 Paladins, as target air-support for the frontline machines. [/hider]
