Description
Mountain troops are infantry specially trained and equipped to fight at in the thin atmosphere and dangerous terrain of mountain warfare.[1] Among the most notable of these units are the 45th Cerulean Mountain Regiment of the 2nd Davion Guards. These troopers, equipped with re-breather masks and climbing equipment, provides the AFFS with the capabilities to fight at altitudes hazardous to conventional aircraft. Known as "Goat Men", Mountaineers often achieve surprising by coming upon the enemy from a direction previously thought safe. [2]
Armament
The primary armament for troopers of the Forty-fifth are M42B Assault Rifles, with additional firepower supplied by two Light SRM Launchers.[2]
