Description[edit]
Designed as a versatile battlesuit for the Wolf's Dragoons Seventh Kommando, the Dragoon battle armor provides protection for combat engineering operations in high risks environments while providing the ease of movement found in lighter suits. The suit is noted for being extremely easy to don and doff, using a two-part system developed by the Dragoons. Operators wear a bodysuit with gauntlets, boots, and full-head helmet that lock into place in the suit and interface with its electronics.
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
The light mortar and flamer equipped by the suit make it ideal for anti-infantry operations. The suit is equipped with jump jets, allowing for quick movement through broken terrain, and a diamond-tipped heavy battle claw that enables swarm attacks on BattleMechs.
Variants[edit]
- Advanced: This version of the Dragoon Battle Armor is reserved for the use of Wolf's Dragoons. It offers better protection than the base suit by using ClanTech armor and swaps the flamer for a micro pulse laser.
