Description[edit]
The Wraith battle armor was designed by the Rasalhague Dominion to support conventional infantry as well as perform surgical strikes. It is equipped with Basic Stealth armor to hide it from enemy probes, and its jump jets allow it to cover ninety meters in a single jump. The suit was introduced after extensive testing of the Rogue Bear battle armor, and is a direct descendant of that design.[1]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
The typical Wraith suit is equipped with a single Machine Gun in each arm. These are supplemented by a Vibro-Claw on each arm for close quarter combat and anti-'Mech attacks. These are also useful during boarding actions.[1]
Variants[edit]
- Anti-Infantry
- This variant of the Wraith is protected by Reactive Armor. In place of the two machine guns each arm carries a Firedrake Support Needler. A set of Improved Sensors allows it to find hidden units. BV (2.0) = 55[3]
