Description

First introduced in 3096, this post Jihad design was created by Clan Wolf as a cheap anti-aircraft platform. Slow and heavilly armored, the Aesir is often set into static positions where its relatively slow speed is not considered a liability. Additionally, it mounts CASE for added protection. Besides its use as a defense against aerial targets, it often used as a mobile gun emplacement.

While initially produced for use in Clan Wolf's second line formation, it has since spread through out the Inner Sphere. Clan Wolf in Exile also produces this design, and Clan Sea Fox is known to sell it to any interested party.

Armament

The Aesir mounts a set of four Type Sierra LB-X Autocannon/2s in its turret. With their long range, and cluster munitions, they are an effective counter against airborn raiders.

Variants

No variants of the Aesir are known.
