Banehammer

We at artillery command do not believe that we are God. We simply borrowed his “smite” button.

-Unknown

Built off of a Stormhammer chassis for mobility, the Banehammer sacrifices its 3' cannon for an array of lethal 16' rockets.

1 VEHICLE

Capacity[]

None.

Sensors[]

All Banehammers carry a full suite of environment sensors (windspeed, gravity, atmosphere composition, etc.) It also carries an AI-assisted indirect sight for its weaponry and has a four-point LADAR for all-around drive assistance.

Anti-Surface Weaponry[]

TR099 16' Rockets (6)[]

To smite the enemy at long range, the Banehammer mounts six 16' short-range ballistic rockets. Powered by a chemical rocket booster and a ramjet motor, the TR099 can deliver a 1500-kilogram explosive-fragmentation-incendiary warhead accurately to a target up to 100 kilometers away.

Anti-Aircraft Weaponry[]

None.

Weaponry[]

Thermonuclear Warhead[]

Some things really need to be softened up. During the Krellius Band Crusade, well-prepared anti-Order forces dug in so heavily that even after six hundred TR009s detonated, they were still unscathed. To solve the problem, the PEC put in 1000kg laser-ignited thermonuclear warheads into their TR099, improving range to 150 kilometers and increasing devastation to the equivalent of 450 kilotons. Now we've got the smite button, eh?

Protection[]

The Banehammer is covered in self-healing ceramic plating backed by spall liner. Able to resist a pressure-assisted 25mm Olympium caseless slug, if penetration happens, the epoxy glue microcapsules in the ceramic plating can allow a fractured piece of ceramic plating to return to roughly the same level of integrity. It has a composite v-shaped undercarriage that not only diverts an explosion under the vehicle outward, but also flexes instead of shattering if pushed beyond its mechanical strength. Active defenses consist of a powerful area denial electromagnetic wave jammer that hopelessly blinds enemy guidance.

Locomotion[]

The Banehammer runs on four medium-efficiency electric motors, each putting out 500 horses. A massive graphene-enhanced lithium polymer battery sits just above the aluminum chassis, which can power the vehicle's electronics, weaponry and motors all at full draw—for 24 hours. The vehicle can hit 100 kmph on a paved road, and keeps the vast majority of it off-road.
