The '''Vehicle Flamer''' performs the same as a 'Mech-mounted [[Flamer]], venting superheated gases at a target to cause it to overheat/burn up. As most non-'Mech combat units lack expensive nuclear fusion reactors, Vehicle Flamers instead draw from a pool of combusting "ammunition" and use that to generate the stream of hot gas.
