Designer Notes
The Black Mamba MP is a feared sight on MILICIA and Republican bases, not so much because of its capabilities as a machine but because of the nature of its pilots. Military police officers have enormous power and few of them ever hesitate to use it. The Black Mamba MP is designed to give MPs the upper handin any situation they might encounter. The first and most obvious difference from the standard Black Mamba is the large shield the military police variant carries. Its armament, which is not designed for heavy combat, consists of a single pistol-style Riotmaster Mk6 shotgun, which fires dangerous flechette ammunition. The standard Mamba's PR-55 autocannon and Vogel-8 rocket pod have been eliminated along with its hand grenades and vibroknife. Only the forward-firing anti-personnel grenade launcher has been retained. The sensors of the MP variant have been downgraded because of its second-line role, but the new cluster is protected by a transparent Armoglass visor and all the sensors on the machine's body are covered by heavy metallic screen to protect them against thrown projectiles. To carry all the additional weight around without significant speed losses, the engine and transmission have both been upgraded.
