Overview:
The Word of Blake Jihad and the ensuing Dark Age changed the Inner Sphere profoundly.
However, Devlin Stone's vision of a utopian state where war was a thing of the past, never quite came to fruition. All-out war has, so far, been avoided, but the various factions that sprang up in the Republic have been engaged in low-level conflict almost continuously.
While the Succesor States have been licking their wounds, they have been keeping a keen eye on events in the Republic. Meanwhile, the Periphery States have been keeping an eye out for opportunist raids by their larger counterparts.
Regent William Sandringham has been nursing the fledgling Coalition through its formative years, both politically and militarily, hoping that fortune will continue to smile upon his people. He is all too aware that this happy state of afffairs could end at any time...
Capabilities:
The Raitaro is the first of several new designs aimed at building the backbone of the BCAF.
With the loss of many manufacturing facilities and much technological knowledge in the Jihad, the emphasis was on simplicity and cost-effectiveness. However, the Coldstream designers, known for their love of technology, could not resist sneaking in a few improvements. The result is a design that employs a mix of old and newer equipment.
The Raitaro uses a standard fusion engine to reduce costs and increase durability. Its main armament comprises a gauss rifle and a pair of LRM15 missile racks.
It was decided the mech should have at least some weaponry that was not ammunition dependant, so an extended range large laser and a pair of medium pulse lasers ensure it is not defenceless when its ammo bins run dry.
The only 'frills' added were Artemis IV fire control, CASE and an ECM system, although the Raitaro also requires an endo-steel chassis in order to provide sufficient free tonnage.
The RTO-01A has good striking power at all ranges and carries enough ammunition for prolonged engagements. It has average speed for an assault mech, decent armour and will only overheat if pushed to its operational limits.
