The ultralight [[IndustrialMech]], since its introduction in [[3044]], has been purchased by various regions of the [[Inner Sphere]] and done well. It was designed to be able to go places that traditional firefighting vehicles are not able to, as well as to assist in urban environments where its special tools in fighting fires and salvage abilities are highly valuable.<ref name=TROVA>''Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex'', p. 220: "Pompier 'Mech Profile"</ref> After the [[Jihad]] GM transferred production of the ''Pompier'' to plants on [[El Dorado]] and [[Talcott]]. Those lines focused on producing the ''Pompier HT'' model, which was in high demand to clean up the many chemical warfare sites that were created during the conflict.<ref>''Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex Revised'', p. 198</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Pompier'' is equipped with a [[Radial]] [[Sprayer|FlexiSprayer]], which is the principal firefighting equipment on the 'Mech, drawing either water or fire-retardant foam from an internal liquid tank with a maximal capacity of half a ton.

However, the 'Mech lacks [[environmental sealing]] to protect its pilot from smoke and chemical fires.<ref name=TROVA/> ==Variants== *; GM-3HT : ''Pompier High-Threat'' is an emergency response FireMech designed to combat chemical fires. Introduced in [[3060]], the GM-3HT variant sacrifices its [[salvage arm]] for quadrupled liquid tank storage capacity and [[environmental sealing]] to allow it to enter highly toxic fire situations. These 'Mechs have been seen in service with industrial complexes in space, air, and seaports, as well as traditional civil organizations. These organizations usually have a single or pair HT variants on standby.<ref name=TROVA/> BV (2.0) = 106<ref>''Record Sheets: Vehicle Annex, IndustrialMechs & Exoskeletons'', p. 42: GM-3HT - Battle Value 2 and Stats</ref><ref>[http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4844/pompier-gm-3ht Master Unit Listing for Pompier GM-3HT FireMech - Introduction Date Only]</ref> *; GM-3CD : ''Pompier Civil Defense'' variant first appeared in the [[Capellan March]] in [[3062]], after the [[Black May]] attacks of the [[Capellan-St. Ives War]]. A rare variation of the ''HT'', which is designed for decontamination of areas that experienced toxic chemical attacks. The 'Mech is equipped with [[Beagle active probe|sophisticated chemical sensors]], [[environmental sealing]], and improved tanks to handle decontamination agents. The 'Mech is also modified to sample and test air for toxins.<ref name=TROVA/> BV (2.0) = 118<ref>''Record Sheets: Vehicle Annex, IndustrialMechs & Exoskeletons'', p. 40: GM-3CD Battle Value 2 and stat information</ref><ref>[http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4843/pompier-gm-3cd Master Unit Listing for Pompier GM-3CD FireMech - Introduction Date Only]</ref> *; GM-FL : A unique version of the ''Pompier'' produced in [[3076]], this was originally designed to test engines and other unique configurations. It was stolen from GM in [[3080]] and ended up in the hands of a professional kidnapper. Equipped with [[advanced fire control]], it also mounts a pair of [[machine gun]]s in the left arm, a [[flamer]] in the right arm, and a [[fluid gun]] with a ton of ammo in the right torso. It uses a [[fusion engine]] to reach a cruising speed of 46 km/h, with a common top speed of 64 km/h; GM engineers experimented with using a [[supercharger]] on the design, and so it can reach a sprint speed of 84 km/h. Despite these advances, it's only protected by half a ton of [[commercial armor]], so it cannot stand up to any battlefield weapon. Despite this shortcoming, it is perfectly adequate to oversee criminal activities and meetings.<ref name=XTRO:MWp7>''Experimental Technical Readout: Most Wanted'', p. 7</ref> BV (2.0) = 88<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Most Wanted'', p. 20</ref><ref>[http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5780/pompier-gm-fl-firemech MUL Profile for Pompier GM-FL - Includes; Introduction Date, Alpha Strike Data Card, BV2]</ref> *; GM-4P PoliceMech : After the GM-FL prototype ''Pompier'' was stolen, GM refitted several ''Pompier''s with fusion engines, stronger armor, and better weapons. The PoliceMech, introduced in [[3085]],<ref>[http://masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/7837/pompier-gm-4p-policemech MUL Profile for Pompier GM-4P]</ref> carries a [[medium pulse laser]] to punch through the armor of the stolen ''Pompier''. The prototype fluid gun is replaced by a [[Flamer (Vehicle)|vehicle flamer]] and a pair of [[machine gun]]s. An ejection seat is also present.
