Description

The Randolph is an early combat vehicle which was developed near the dawn of the Age of War, just after 2300.[2] The vehicle's intended mission was to support frontline troops as a transport/support vehicle. The Randolph was produced Inner Sphere wide, seeing service with various factions and private units. The vehicle remained in service up through the Reunification War. However it was phased out of service by end of that war due to its obsolete equipment .[3]

Equipment and Capabilities

The vehicle is protected by two tons of BAR 5 grade armor, which was considered good armor protection when it was first introduced into service.
