| Designer Notes |
| The Snakeye variant of the Black Mamba fills the need for a high performance, stealth commando Gear built for covert operations, assassinations, and lightning raids. Its rubberized radar absorbent material (RAM) coating inside all the skirt armor plates and on the soles, coupled with the unorthodox battery/gas turbine powerplant and a rubber-like, lightweight, radar absorbent polymer glazing, gives the Snakeye very impressive stealth capabilities. The hybrid propulsion system gives the pilot the option of switching to "whisper" mode by shutting down the turbine and only using the energy stored in the battery. The battery also feeds the main weapon system, a TU-16 laser rifle that can hit small targets at very long range with amazing accuracy. Because of the battery's dual function, the TU-16 can fire only 40 shots before a long recharging time is required. The custom-built engine also includes a heavily insulated armored casing that helps to mask its heat signature and gives it the back armor other Black Mambas lack. The sensor and communcations packages of the Snakeye were also converted to stealth operation, limiting the detectable emissions in exchange for reduced range. |
