Description

Created by Clan Nova Cat after the success of the Shoden, the Joust was designed to be a well rounded medium tank. With a wide mix of weapons, the Joust is a versatile design, capable of handling a multitude of roles and missions. With eight tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor, the Joust carries close to twice the armor of the similar Ares tank.

Earlier versions of the Joust had problems with their fire control programs, often causing the ER Large Laser to fire unexpectedly.

Armament

The Joust is well armed for its size, with an ER Large Laser, an LRM-10, and eight Light Machine Guns in its turret.

Variants

None Known
