==Description==
Found exclusively in the [[Draconis Combine]] the '''Heavy Riot Infantry''', also known as ''Friendly Persuaders'', are a form of police trooper that are employed in crowd control. Used when situation merits their presence, they are deployed to situations from handling rioters to storming criminal hideouts. Riot Infantry are deployed either as foot platoons of 28 troopers or Mechanized platoons of 24 troopers. The Mechanized platoons are rapidly moved to situations by armored cars and carry [[Recoilless Rifle (Light)(Support Weapon)|recoilless rifles]] with explosive and gas rounds.<ref name=HHK189>''Handbook: House Kurita'', p. 189-90 - "Heavy Riot Infantry".</ref>
