==Overview:==
--- The AB9 is a popular ship among the Great Houses and the major Periphery
States alike for it's capacity to carry out a variety of green water and brown
water combat operations. The vessel's cost, both upfront as well as
operational, confines it's use to established military units and wealthy mercs.
==Capabilities:==
--- The AB9 is a 55 Ton Attack Boat with an ICE power plant and a variety of
capabilities. A full ton of mass is allocated to the stowage of
mission-related cargo and is supplemented by a half ton stowage bay for
smaller items or personal affects.
--- The ship is armed with a fore facing Five Tube Long Range Torpedo
launcher, an aft facing Four Tube Short Range Torpedo launcher and a quartet
of Machine Guns mounted inside of an armored turret.
--- The ammunition for these weapons is provided by a two and a half ton
magazine, with one ton allocated for each of the torpedo launchers while the
remaining half ton, located inside of the turret is used to feed the ship's
four Machine Guns.
--- The AB9 is clad in nine tons of armor, with two tons protecting the fore,
aft and turret while another ton and half protect the port and starboard
sides. A three ton Infantry Bay rounds out the ship's capabilities, providing
transit for up to a platoon of infantry.
==Deployment==
--- The AB9 has seen action throughout the Inner Sphere, from covert actions
to counter-insurgencies to full-scale defenses of major ports. It's
capabilities make it particularly suited to the defense of rivers, namely at
the points where they join larger bodies of water; however the AB9 has also
seen use on lakes.
--- Large, wealthy or highly specialized mercenary units have also been known
to field AB9 Attack Boats, particularly those who specialize in small scale
amphibious warfare. It is not unheard of for some units to keep one on hand
for operations which may require or allow support via rivers or coastal
waters.
