Description
The Pinto Attack VTOL is a speedy VTOL that went into full production in 3055. It is popular amongst the Explorer Corps and the Com Guard in general. Following the conquest of Terra by Word of Blake in 3058, Krupp Armament Works continued to produce the Pinto for the Word of Blake Militia. The Pinto is well-armored for a VTOL with four tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor. It also has a ton of cargo space that is usually used to transport a squad of infantry.
Armament
The Attack VTOL has three Blankenburg Technologies Medium Lasers that it uses to make high-speed passes at enemies. In instances where close-range combat is not desirable, it can still participate with its Magna Longbow-5 LRM-5 launcher that is guided by an Artemis IV FCS.
Variants
- Pinto Attack VTOL (WoB) - This variant of the Pinto was created by the WoB during the Jihad. The VTOL's engine is swapped out for a XL Engine, which allowed for increase of its payload. The VTOL's infantry bay is increased to 6 ton capacity, to allow for WoB Level I Battle Armor Squad. It has two Extended Range Medium Lasers, and a Artemis IV FCS enhanced Five-Tube Multi-Missile Launcher. The vehicle has 20 SRMs & 24 LRMs for the Launcher. BV (2.0) = 703[3]
