| Designer Notes |
| The Dartjager rapid deployment vehicle had a distinguished period of service, being deployed across the Badlands and the Antarctic to deal rapidly with trouble spots. The relatively light weapons payload of the Dart has been problematic for its pilots, however. Deploying well ahead of any fire support units, Dart pilots can rapidly find themselves out-gunned if the opposition they face proves greater than anticiapted by intelligence reports. A rapid-deployment fire-support vehicle was needed to travel alongside Dartjagers, so MILICIA technicians set to work. It was critical that the unit -- dubbed the Heavy Shooter -- be able to match the standard Dart pace for pace, so it quickly became clear that multiple heavy weapons would prove to heavy for the task at hand. A Rucker Blackhammer-15 unguided mortar was chosen for its durability and low price tag; all other eapons were stripped to save weight, making a slight increase in armored protection possible. The disadvantage of the Blackhammer-15 mortar is its inability to fire at close range, forcing the Heavy Shooter to hang back from the main body of the unit it is supporting. To prevent a failure of communication due to harsh conditions or electronic counter measures, the gear is also equipped with an upgraded Obelisk Electronics VOX-90 communications system. |
