Overview:
Developed during the Federated Commonwealth Civil War, the Mk IX variant of the
Alacorn proliferated in the years before the Jihad. The Mk IX was marked as a
mixed anti-vehicle and anti-air platform but the sheer firepower merited its
use giving close fire support to assault formations.
Capabilities:
Like any of this design family, the Alacorn Mk IX focuses on delivering
exceptional firepower. A quad-turret mounted with four Rapid Autocannon allows
almost unmatched salvos as long as they can be kept from seizing up.
Deployment:
Seen in both the LAAF and AFFS, the Mk IX was quickly adopted by the WoBM after
New Earth fell under Blakist control.
