Description

The Ryu Heavy Transport (WiGE) was produced by Wakazashi Enterprises for use by planetary militias. Based on Wakazashi's civilian version, the Ryu shares much of the Koi's mechanics and design features.[1]

The craft was designed as a Logistic Support craft, moving military equipment, personnel, vehicles, and BattleMechs if need calls for it. However the vehicle armor has only been slightly increased by ton over its civilian version. Making it vulnerable to weapons fire from the ground. Weapons have been added to provide some defense, but vehicle is built for behind back area use.[1]
