− | ==Description==
| |
− | The '''Harpoon Parasubmersible''' is a small, unpressurized underwater vehicle developed by the [[Kraken Unleashed]] [[mercenary unit]] with the local shipwright industry during their stay on [[Principia]] in the late 3070s (and at some point prior to 3085). It allowed for the creation of [[Submersible Mechanized Infantry]].<ref name=TRO85S>''Technical Readout: 3085 Supplemental'', p. 6</ref>

− | The Harpoon parasubs are small enough that they can be quickly loaded into transport vehicles and deployed anywhere on a planet within a matter of hours, making them more readily deployable than heavier combat submarines while possessing enough firepower to threaten even a determined underwater [[BattleMech]] attack. When deployed, the parasubs are capable of moving the Submersible Mechanized Infantry at sustained speeds above thirty km/h.<ref name=TRO85S/>
| |
− | | |
− | Since their development, Harpoon parasubs have gone on the open market.<ref>''A Time of War Companion'', p. 191, "Water Vehicles"</ref>

− | ==Armament==
| |
− | Besides being armed with a small torpedo launcher, the Harpoon Parasub allows its occupants to fire their [[gyroslug rifle]]s from the safety of the armored vehicle.<ref name=TRO85S/>
