VTR-9C Victor History: In 2508, HildCo Interplanetary delivered the first VTR-9A Victor to the Terran Hegemony, tweaking the design just two years later with the familiar VTR-9B. Initially designed as a jump capable support ‘Mech, the Victor approaches it support role in a rather unique way. While most support units mount an array of long range missiles, low caliber autocannons or PPCs, the Victor carries exclusively short range weapons. When a Victor moves in to support another unit, it often literally leaps into the fray using its powerful HildCo Model 12 jump jets. Capable of jumping 120 meters, the Victor often interposes itself directly between the enemy and friendly unit once the friendly unit has reeled its target into short range. Then the Victor brings its primary weapon into play, a massive Pontiac 100 Class 20 autocannon, the largest autocannon ever made. One of only a few ‘Mechs mounting such a devastating weapon, it is capable of destroying a light ‘Mech with a single shot, blowing limbs off medium class machines, and crippling anything heavier. Add to this a pair of Sorenstein V medium lasers and a Holly SRM-4, and you have the most effective close support platform ever built. Given its mobility and 11.5 tons of Durallex Heavy armor, the Victor can be a difficult target, especially when jumping, for such a large ‘Mech. It also features an unusually large magazine for its ammunition hungry Pontiac 100. A full three tons of space is dedicated to carrying the punishing rounds for the Class 20 autocannon, allowing it 15 shots before needing to rearm. The Victor also makes a fine urban combat unit where most fighting tends to occur at shorter ranges. The Pontiac 100 is an ideal ambush weapon, able to inflict massive damage with just a single shot. Equipped with jump jets, the Victor can also easily get away by leaping behind a nearby building and disappearing into the streets and alleyways. The same is largely true of alpine, and other difficult to navigate environments. The Victor can go were other assault class ‘Mechs cannot, making it an especially nasty surprise for units operating in such areas. After serving the Terran Hegemony for over 50 years, the Victor was adopted by the Star League Defense Force line regiments where it served well during the Reunification Wars. Afterwards, the Victor was offered to the Member States as well who were all to happy to purchase the potent, battle-tested BattleMech. The downside of this is that the Victor was never outfitted with any of the advanced technology the Star League so zealously guarded. This would prove to be fortuitous, however, in the aftermath of the League’s disintegration. The First Succession War saw the destruction of all three of HildCo Interplanetary’s Victor assembly lines, including their headquarters on St. Ives. That would have doomed the ‘Mech if it had not been for a Star League era Regular Army licensing agreement with Independence Weaponry on Quentin which allowed production of the Victor to continue. Independence Weaponry had also negotiated agreements with the SLDF Regular Army to produce two other well-respected designs in the Steel Valley, General Motor’s MAD-3R Marauder and the iconic 100-ton AS7-D Atlas, which carries the massive Pontiac 100 Class 20 autocannon as well. Capabilities: The VTR-9C replaces the cumbersome Pontiac 100 autocannon, along with its three tons of explosive ammunition, with a powerful Kreuss particle beam weapon. This gives the -9C sorely needed long range support capability, albeit at the cost of hitting power. The other flaw of the Pontiac 100, aside from its short range, is its incredible weight. The Kreuss PPC weighs only half that of the autocannon. With the weight savings, a second Holly SRM-4 has been installed immediately below the original to help offset the loss of short range firepower. Both missile launchers utilize the same ammunition bin. Another five heat sinks have been added as well bringing it up to a total of 20, giving the -9C an excellent rate of fire. Most importantly, the armor has been completely 91 overhauled. The original 11.5 tons of Durallex Heavy have been replaced with 14.5 tons of the much thicker Star Guard IV, making the –9C among the most heavily armored machines in existence, carrying armor equivalent to the vaunted BattleMaster. Between the heavy armor, and largely energy based weaponry, the VTR-9C can stay on the battlefield significantly longer than its predecessor. Variants: The original VTR-9A carried only 8.5 tons of armor. This allowed the -9A to carry a full complement of anti-infantry weapons consisting of a machine gun and two flamers. The -9A1 utilized ten tons of Durallex Heavy armor and carried two SperryBrowning machine guns for antiinfantry use.
