Titan Flying Fortress

Titan Flying Fortress

Consistant with ARCHIE's view of irritating and baiting the Coalition, Titan Industries have designed a heavier version of the Flying Titan to compete directly with the Coalition SAMAS. As of Novwmber 101PA this unit is under-going final field trials with a scheduled release date of Mid February 102PA (about 2 months before the arrival of the Mechanoids).
To all intense and purpose this armour looks from a distance like a SAMAS. Only at ranges of 200ft or less or if the wing missiles are fired can this suit be distinguished.

Weapon Systems
1. CW-C40R Rail Gun
This is an almost duplicate of the Coalitions C40R railgun as used by the SAMAS, even down to the fact that the ammo drums are interchangable.
The increased damage from a shorter burst is achieved through improved construction techniques and a superior computer assisted firing mechanism.
Weight: 90 lbs (40.5Kg). Ammo Drum 190 lbs (85.5KG)
Mega-Damage: A burst is 25 rounds and inflicts 5D6MD. One Round inflicts 1D4MD
Rate of Fire: Aim or Burst
Maximum Effective Range: 4000 feet
Payload: Drum holds 2000 rounds. Thats 80 bursts.
Reloading takes 1 minutes with equipment and a trained operator. 5 minutes if without either or both.
2. Left Arm Pulse Laser
Designed as a backup weapon or for close defense, this is a single heavy duty pulse laser capable of either Aimed or Burst fire.
Mega Damage: 2D6 for single shot. 5d6 for both Burst.
Range: 1000 feet
Rate of Fire: Equal to pilots hand to hand attacks per melee.
Payload: Unlimited
3. Wing Missiles
In a similar manner to the Flying Titan the Flying Fortress mounts its missiles on wing pylons. 8 mini-missiles or 4 SRMs can be mounted on each wing.
Missile Type: any
Mega-Damage: dependant upon missile type
4. Hand to Hand Damage
As per SAMAS
5. Energy Rifle
The armour supports specifically designed holsters for carrying a side arm and energy rifle. Otherwise see comments for Flying Titan.
6. Sensor Systems
Same as normal SAMAS, but Radar Range is 50% greater, and there is an additional +1 to strike at ranged combat.
