Description
Turning to OmniPod technology to meet myriad requirements of the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces Quartermaster Corps, the Zugvogel Omni Support Aircraft can be configured for almost any support role.[1]
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 Fighters, Lockheed/CBM again turned to modular Omni construction to develop a single design capable of meeting as many roles as possible.[1]
Weapons and Equipment
Built using an Edasich commercial-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]
The Zugvogel's 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 one of Light Gauss reloads complement four heat sinks.[1]
Alternate Configurations
- Alternate Configuration A
- An aerial command post, the Zugvogel A mounts a Hi-Rez Imager on the front, rear and each side along with a Hyperspectral Imager, Infrared Imager Camera, Look-Down Radar, all linked to a Command Console, C3 Master Computer and a extensive comunications array. Armed only defensively, a pair of LB 2-X Autocannons are mounted aft, with a single forward facing Medium Variable Speed Pulse Laser. Three tons of LB-X Autocannon reloads and seven heat sinks are more than enough for its noncombat role. BV (2.0) = 645,[1] 712[3]
- Alternate Configuration B
- A field hospital configuration, the Zugvogel B mounts a ten theater MASH unit, Paramedic Equipment, Field Kitchen and powerful Searchlights to illuminate the area when grounded. A fifty ton Light Vehicle Bay for rescue jeeps and ambulances, and a four-ton infantry bay round out this configuration. BV (2.0) = 645,[1] 570[4]
- Alternate Configuration 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 twelve ton infantry bay fill the remaining space. BV (2.0) = 518,[1] 570[5]
- Alternate Configuration D
- The so-called Raubvogel, the D configuration, is an 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,[1] 2,022[6]
- Alternate Configuration E
- This version carries four Anti-Missile Systems with two covering the nose and aft arc. It also carries a pair of MML-5s in the nose and a Rotary AC/2 covers the aft arc. A Guardian ECM Suite provides electronic warfare support. The RAC/2 covers the main exit hatch which opens onto a forty-eight ton infantry bay. BV (2.0) = 1,038,[7] 1,028[8]
- Alternate Configuration F
- Introduced in the Dark Age era this Zugvogel is equipped with an Advanced Fire Control system to operate five Clan-built LRM-15s, two Thunderbolt-20 launchers, and three Medium Chemical Lasers. Each wing mounts a single LRM launcher, and the chemical lasers cover the aft arc of the Zugvogel. The rest of the weaponry is carried in the nose. BV (2.0) = 2,894[9][10]
- Unnamed Alternate Configurationuration
- The Republic of the Sphere put out a request to Lockheed-CBM for an OmniPod that could carry a full company of Battle Armor.[11]
