The Clan Steel Viper Touman is the military arm of Clan Steel Viper.
Touman structure
Most front-line Clusters conform to the standard Clan doctrine of three 'Mech, one Elemental and one Aerospace Trinary. Medium and heavy-weight 'Mechs comprise most of these 'Mech assets, with light and assault 'Mechs restricted to specialist units. However, though they field the same number of aerospace fighters as other Clans, Steel Viper aerospace Points contain only one fighter rather than the standard two. This leaves ground units much more vulnerable to air assaults than other Clan units.[1]
Second-line Clusters vary their composition based on their specialist role. Fang Clusters deploy three BattleMech Trinaries and a conventional infantry Trinary while Phalanx Clusters reverse this by deploying three infantry Trinaries and one 'Mech. Legion Clusters deploy two each of 'Mech and conventional infantry, and all three include an aerospace Trinary. Conventional armor is sometimes used, although they remain an uncommon sight.[1]
Also unique compared to other Clans is the fact that all Steel Viper warriors are trueborn, a result of their xenophobic discrimination against any and all freeborn humans.[1]
The Steel Vipers also maintain specialist Star formations:
