Overview:
The Patton was one of the earliest, and very possibly the most ambitious, of
the military technology collaborations between the Lyran Commonwealth and the
Federated Suns - to a degree that the two nations involved would successfully
conceal from outsiders until many years later.
With TharHes Industries - and the Steiner family who were their primary
stakeholders - as the project's financial backers, Defiance as primary
development and design warehouse, and Blackwell Industries' access to existing
omnitechnology production in the form of their Badger light combat vehicles,
Trellshire Heavy Industries and the Armaments Corporation of the Rift were
brought into partnership to meet production goals, and within only a few years
the Patton was well on course to becoming the primary heavy combat vehicle of
the LCAF.
Capabilities:
With the relatively low profile of the Badger Tracked Transport Blackwell had
produced for Wolf's Dragoons before their incorporation into the Lyran Foreign
Legion, it was the Patton that introduced the Inner Sphere to omni-technology.
Quicker to repair and almost impossibly easier to refit than a standard combat
vehicle, damaged Pattons could be brought back to service in hours rather than
days, or switched to different configurations for the good of the service in
days rather than weeks.
Additional:
To ease the preparation of configurations for LCAF omni-units, the General
Staff prepared a listing of standard configurations, with classifications
shared across all types of omni-unit, what would come to be known as the Config
Matrix.
A - All-Purpose; A variety of weapons suitable for answering any foreseeable
threat.
B - Brawler; A weapon battery consisting of mid-ranged weapons
C - Juggernaut; Weaponry selected for maximum concentration of damage
D - Missile Support; Long-Range missiles and other tactical indirect-fire
systems
E - Skirmisher; A bracket-fire setup, a combination of long and short range
F - Striker; A short-range weapon array
G - Sniper; Long-range direct-fire weapons
H - Air Defense; Primary weapons selected for AA purposes; LBX, Flak Ammo ACs,
etc
I - Melee; Melee weapons, otherwise as Skirmisher
J - Artillery; Carrying an artillery weapon and 25+ units of fire
K - Electronic Warfare; Sensor, ECM, Command Console, TAG, according to chassis
aptitudes
