− The '''J-27 Ordnance Transport''' was the backbone of the [[Star League Defense Force]] and remains a common sight in [[Inner Sphere]] and [[Periphery]] armies. Consisting of a tracked cab and wheeled trailer unit driven by two crewmen, each J-27 can carry eleven tons of ammo in total, enough for a single [[BattleMech]] [[lance]]. The tractor can hold three tons of ammunition (typically missile reloads for [[LRM]] launchers) while the trailer carries the remainder. A half-ton of armor protects the vehicle, though the supplies are transported in the open, and the trailer can only be detached from the cab manually, usually the job of the third crewman.<ref name=TRO3039/> + The '''J-27 Ordnance Transport''' was the backbone of the [[Star League Defense Force]] and remains a common sight in [[Inner Sphere]] and [[Periphery]] armies.

Though critical to the resupply of military units in the field, the J-27 makes for a very explosive target. For some [[Great House]] armies, especially those of [[House Kurita]], J-27s are operated by penal units, though [[House Steiner]] and [[House Davion]] do not follow this policy. Most military convicts, when given the choice between the firing squad or service with a J-27 unit, choose the former.<ref name=TRO3039/> Though critical to the resupply of military units in the field, the J-27 makes for a very explosive target.
