Named after Japanese demons, the Tengu is unique for boasting both an enhanced ground speed and [[jump jet]]s allowing it to leap sixty meters at a time in what some observers call "an overworked motive system arrangement." This runs counter to the conventional wisdom of battle armor design, which seeks to save as much weight as possible by emphasizing only one mode of travel above another. Another unique feature of the Tengu compared to other Demon designs is its modular layout whereas the others employed fixed systems.<ref name=TRO3075/> The prevailing theory is that the Tengu was a testbed design made by Dr. [[Devon Cortland]] to see if he could build a battlesuit with the same flexibility as the [[Celestial series]] of [[OmniMechs]]. While Dr. Cortland switched to using hard-wired systems in other suits, the Tengu nevertheless went on to become a fixture in the [[Shadow Divisions]] of the [[Manei Domini]], serving in a variety of roles. Its 520kg of advanced armor is enough to stop two [[Medium Pulse Laser]] blasts and still have a little left, and though it has four primary configurations, the nature of the Tengu allows for a wide array of variants including several unconfirmed variations such as a weaponless electronic warfare suit and a [[Rocket Launcher]]-equipped anti-infantry suit.<ref name=TRO3075/> ==Weapons and Equipment== The Tengu's weapons are completely configurable as it has a [[Modular Weapon Mount]] in the left arm and an [[Anti-Personnel Weapon Mount]] in the right, with both arms using [[Basic Manipulator]]s to grasp objects. In the standard configuration a [[Man-Portable Plasma Rifle (Battle Armor)|Man-Portable Plasma Rifle]] is the most common weapon system, while the AP mount can carry any infantry-scale weapon weighing 35kg or less.<ref name=TRO3075/> ==Variants== *;Support : This version came into service at the same time as the standard configuration and instead of the plasma rifle it carries a smaller [[Light Recoilless Rifle (Battle Armor)|Light Recoilless Rifle]]. The mass saved by using this lighter weapon goes towards a [[One-Shot]] [[SRM-3 (Battle Armor)|SRM-3]] in a [[Detachable Missile Pack]], though the launcher prevents the Tengu from jumping until it is jettisoned. Its AP mount has a capacity of 25kg.
