Designer Notes
The Long Bow Jager was as good an inexpensive rifleman Gear as could be achieved for its price, and yet many tinkered with the concept. Based on the versatile Jager chassis, the Long bow was sturdy, reliable, and easily modified to reflect the tasks required of it. It was thought that merging some characteristics of the Long Bow with those of the paratrooper variant would make it more mobile than before and able to tackle a greater variety of missions. The resulting hybrid presents characteristics from both models and some improvements of its own. Making the Gear airdroppable allowed it to target important commanders and crucial objectives such as supply dumps, who are normally found well within the rear lines. Because of the more dangerous nature of this duty and the wider target selection, the Long Bow had its regular mortar replaced with a version firing light guided projectiles which can home in on targets designated by the Gear's cadre-mates. The Paratrooper also carries a pack gun for situations wich might require the use of automatic weapon fire. The sensor suite has been upgraded to increase its resolution, making it easier to acquire targets in difficult weather. To make the vehicle even more competitive, several improvements have been offered by the manufacturer, the least of which is the addition of camouflage netting and a smoke launcher system.
