Description
The second of the Demon series of battle armor to be spotted, the Tengu also appears to feature the most experimentation. The Tengu is named after the Japanese demons. Not only can it maintain 21 km/h on the ground, it can also jump sixty meters. It has enough Advanced Armor to stop two Medium Pulse Laser blasts and still have a little left.[3]
Weapons and Equipment
The Tengu's weapons are completely modular as it has a Modular Weapon Mount and an Anti-Personnel Weapon Mount. A Man-Portable Plasma Rifle is the most common weapon, though it can handle others.[2]
Variants
- Support
- This version uses a smaller weapon mount that normally holds a Light Recoilless Rifle. The mass saved goes towards a One-Shot SRM-3 in a Detachable Missile Pack. BV (2.0) = 52[2][4]
- Small VSP Laser
- A third version removes a slight amount of armor and replaces the Modular Weapon Mount with a Detachable Weapon Mount. This variant uses it to carry a Small Variable-Speed Laser. The bulk of the mount severely restricts the suit's mobility unless it is jettisoned. BV (2.0) = 52[2][5]
- Medium Laser
- A slight variation on the “Small VSP Laser” variant, this version swaps out the laser for a Medium Laser. BV (2.0) = 67[2][6]
- Plasma
- This version carries a Plasma Rifle. BV (2.0) = 48[7]
- C3i
- This version has a single Inner Sphere Light TAG system and an experimental Battle Armor C3i system. It has two basic manipulators for use of conventional infantry weapons, but is mostly used as a spotting unit for other Word of Blake forces. BV (2.0) = 37[8]
- Rocket Launcher
- This version carries a Machine Gun, two Battle Claws, and a pair of four tube Rocket Launchers. BV (2.0) = 50[9]
