Description

Turning to Omni Pod technology to meet myiad requirements of the LCAF Quartmaster Corps, the Zugvogel Omni Support Aircraft can be cinfigured for almost any support role.

Relying on a large number of fixed wing support craft to maintain the massive logistical supply train of the Lyran military, the LAAF/LCAF Quartermaster Corps utilized a considerable volume of Lockheed/CBM's King Karnov in a seemingly endless array of variants to meet numerous roles. Attempting to simplify and streamline its manufacturing lines in the manner of the Morgenstern OmniFighter's replacement of three AeroSpace Fighter, Lockheed/CBM again turned to modular Omni construction to develop a single design capable of meeting as many roles as possible.

Built using an Edasich commerical-grade Fusion Engine, making it twenty-five percent faster than the King Karnov, the Zugvogel mounts eleven and half tons of military grade armor, and carries advanced fire control and CASE as standard. Featuring a whopping seventy-one and half tons of pod space, the Zugvogel can be modified for nearly any mission an army could come up with. [1]

Armament

The Zugvogels primary configuration is that of a heavily armed combat transport, carrying a forward facing pair of LRM-15s, two Light AC/2s and a Medium Pulse Laser, supported by a Light Gauss Rifle mounted aft. Reserving twenty-two and half tons for cargo space, five tons of LRM missiles, two tons of Light AC ammo and on of Light Gauss reloads compliement four heat sinks. [1]

Alternate Configurations

  • Alt Config B - A field hospital configuration, the Zugvogel B mounts a ten theater MASH unit, paramedic equipment, Field Kitchen and powerful Searchlights to iluminate the area when grounded. A fifty ton Light Vehicle Bay for rescue jeeps and ambelances and four ton infantry bay round out the config. BV (2.0) = 645 [2]
  • Alt Config C - A mobile repair based configuration, the Zugvogel C is equipped with two Mobile Field Repair Bases, Lift Hoist and searchlight. A twenty-ton storage bay for parts and a tweleve ton infantry bay fill the remaining space. BV (2.0) = 518 [2]
  • Alt Config D - The so-called Raubvogel, the D configuration is a aerial gunship intended to defend its fellow craft capable of frightening even the bravest aerojock, mounting twin Gauss Rifles, a Heavy PPC and Rocket Launcher 10 forward, with an Ultra AC/2 mounted aft. Seven tons of gauss reloads, two of Ultra AC ammo and fifteen heat sinks give the D reasonable field endurance. BV (2.0) = 1,444 [2]
  • Unnamed Alt Configuration - The Republic of the Sphere put out a request to Lockheed-CBM for an Omni Pod that could carry a full company of Battle Armor.[3]
