Overview[edit]
Light Target Acquisition Gear is a scaled-down version of Light TAG mounted on battle armor. Like its larger vehicular cousin, it allows armored troopers to direct friendly guided munitions such as Arrow IV artillery missiles and Semi-Guided LRMs onto enemy targets. However, to avoid giving the guided munitions contradictory instructions even if every member of a battle armor squad is equipped with Light TAG they can only target one individual unit at a time. For this reason, light TAG is often employed as a squad support weapon; indeed the Combine first employed light TAG in this manner for their Kage scout squads.[3]
