The Fireant
fireant.jpg

STATISTICS:
 
CREW:  1 pilot
 
PROPULSION:  1 MekTek standard Superlite Electrical interface drive
 
WEAPONS:  2 Heckler/Koch Medium machine guns, 2 MekTek advanced flamers

The Fireant is used strictly for base patrol and light escort duties. Highly effective against troops, it is deployed in vast numbers in the Clan.

ENGINEERING NOTES:
 
Although an older model, the Fireant remains the guard of choice at most bases.  Despite it's obvious lack of weapons and armor, a squad of Fireants once took down an Atlas, simply because he could not turn fast enough to hit them.  Still, they are highly ineffective on most targets.
