Description
The Trebaruna is a Quad configured Assault BattleMech that was originally designed by the Word of Blake Protectorate. Production plans were canceled by the Word of Blake in 3078, when Allied Coalition forces had finally closing in on Terra. The design was discovered by Coalition members, and was offered to all the partners. The design was put into production by Republic of the Sphere as part of its newly formed armed forces in 3081, followed shortly after by the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth and Capellan Confederation.
The Trebaruna's hull was protected by 16 tons of Durallex Heavy Armor, with CASE imbedded into right torso. The Trebaruna used a reliable Pitban 285 rated Fusion Engine as its source of power. The Pitban's standard designs helps to keep the design from being crippled too easily. To aid the 'Mech in coping with lack of no rear facing weapons and its modest speed, the design been given five Improved Jump Jets. [2]
Armament
The Trebaruna was designed to fight its opponents are long ranges. Its main weapon ws its right torso mounted Imperator Dragon's Fire Gauss Rifle, with 2 tons of ammunition supported by three Moscovia Light Particle Projection Cannons found in opposite torso. These weapons are guided by a Targeting Computer located in the 'Mech left torso. The 'Mech is fitted with 20 Double Heat Sinks to help cope with weapon and engine heat. [3]
Variants
- TR-XJ - Produced by the Free Worlds League splinter nation of Marik-Stewart Commonwealth, the XJ variant differed from original XB in secondary weapons and targeting equipment. Its Targeting Computer was removed and the Light PPCs were replaced by pair of Snub-Nose PPCs. In additional, the 'Mech armor and Double Heat Sink were increased. BV(2.0)=????[4]
- TR-XL - This variant was produced by Capellan Confederation, who soldiers had discovered the Blakist design during their liberation efforts in later part of the Jihad. The variant replaced the Gauss Rifle with a LB 20-X Class Autocannon, and Light PPCs were changed out for pair of Plasma Rifles. The 'Mechs' ammunition was protected by CASE in the 'Mech's left torso, while the design armor had been increased to 17.5 tons. To allow for the additional armor and new equipment, the standard Fusion Engine was exchanged for a Light Fusion Engine. BV(2.0)=????[5]
