Overview:
With a name like Ninjaken, one would expect this attack VTOL to be a Product of
Luthien Armor Works or Scarborough Industries. the fact is that the Ninjaken
was built by Avalon Arms for a very specific purpose. the elimination of the
so called "Samurai" class Battlemechs
Capabilities:
Avalon arms was ordered to spare no expense when designing the Ninjaken, the
use of an XL fusion engine, a difficult to install and maintain chin turret and
heavy ferro fibrous armor shows that this direction was taken very seriously.
the keystone to the Ninjaken however is the Large Re Engineered Laser, wich has
the unique capability to punch through the Hardened armor these popular and
increasingly widespread mechs have become famous for.
Deployment
the first squadrons of Ninjaken have made it through their shakedown trails and
have been issued to the Light Davion Guards, where the best VTOL Pilot and
gunner teams are being reassigned wherever they can be found. meanwhile Avalon
Arms has stepped up production with plans that multiple squadrons of the
vehicle will be issued to the entirety of the Avalon Hussars and Crucis Lancers
in hopes of pushing back the Dragon's armies.
