Tiresian Mobile Gun.	Mobile Gun Bioroid (Tiresian Mecha).		AZASHAR-Class General Purpose Vessels.
Historic Background: Fast, maneuverable, and able to chew through a hover tank a new ... Well, you get the idea. The Mobile Gun Bioroid was designed as s support and assault weapon with the speed and movement necessary to have the advantage in the jungles of Indochina and the firepower to put holes through the heaviest of armored opponents. It is little more than a a large gun on a pair of legs, the Robotech Masters' equivalent of a tank or Regult (Tactical Battle Pod), the agility of a Logan Veritech Fighter. Its' locomotion is based on agile, stable two-legged design of the T'sentraedi Regult, but its Bioroid origins allow for a Micronian or clone pilot. This leaves space to make it much more heavily armored than the old, giant Battle Pods. Mobile Gun Bioroids are commonly deployed with Hunter-Killer Bioroids as heavy support. In this role, they often remain a significant distance behind the smaller units and act as snipers when needed. Current Status: The Tiresians use the Mobile Gun Bioroid as their main front-line Mecha now, due to sparse inventories and high cost of production of alternatives; It's a simple economic decision. Gone are the days when the Tiresians could build better options in the quantities needed. The Mobile Gun Bioroid had 2 built in weapons before, since the Escape From Terra they've added missile launchers, but the inventories of missiles means that the Mecha is most likely not fully loaded. Adaptor kits to convert them to T'sentradi missiles are available, but the Tiresians stubbornly refuse to use "slave weapons." T'sentradi missile launcher equipped versions are installed on export models, however; The biggest buyer of the Mobile Gun was the Atorians, who still trade heavily for them, but the Darish Syhith Order of Rakata and the Lucian Alliance have risen over the last century. COBRA! Command aslo would liek to obtain a battalion's worth. MDC By Location:
