With over half its mass dedicated to weaponry, the Mars is capable of swiftly dispatching enemy units. Its slow speed necessitates the use of long-range weapons. As such, it carries a [[CRG]] [[Gauss rifle]] and [[Series 7N]] [[ER Large Laser]] to snipe with. Both of these weapons are mounted in the tank's turret, giving them the maximum possible field of fire. A [[Type KOV]] [[LB-X Autocannon/10]] gives it additional power, as well as the ability to cripple enemies with its cluster munitions, especially [[VTOL]]s. Three [[LRM-15]]s, each of which is slaved to an [[Artemis IV Fire Control System]], add even more damage potential at range, though a ton of ammunition for each limits the amount of times they can be utilized. Defensively, each side is protected by a [[Pattern J6c]] [[Streak SRM-6]], and two [[Series IX]] [[Machine Gun]]s are in the turret to cut down unarmored [[infantry]].<ref name=TRO3060p68/>
