Description

The J-37 Ordnance Transport is a support vehicle used for resupplying military units in the field. Based on the earlier J-27 Ordnance Transport, it has been produced in the Capellan Confederation by Ceres Metals since the 28th Century, though production was halted by the Succession Wars. In response to the failings of the J-27, the J-37 is larger, with the ability to carry 17 tons of cargo, and better protected, replacing the vulnerable trailer with an enclosed hold. It also comes with a one-ton Infantry Transport Bay and carries 5.5 tons of combat-grade armor. The vehicle's high speed, powered by a Fusion Engine, allows it to quickly get to its destination and, if necessary, flee from the enemy.

Armament

The vehicle is only armed with an ER Small Laser, meant to provide limited self-protection, manned by a dedicated gunner.

Variants

When originally produced, the J-37 was armed with only a Small Laser, as well as a weaker frame and armoring. When production restarted in 3076, the vehicle was heavily upgraded to its current configuration.

Notes

Originally created by WizKids' MechWarrior: Dark Age - Death from Above game set. Additional rules and record sheets were provided following the release of Technical Readout: 3085 and Record Sheets: 3085.
