Overview:
One of the more common configurations used, the M1 offers indirrect fire while bringing
along a squad of battle armor to either spot or body guard.
Variants:
2 alternative branches for this configuration exist. In the M series different launcher and
ammo configurations are explored. Most common retains the LRM-20 and simply adds ammo.
Usually Thunder mines.
The T branch instead focuses on being a transport. Multiple squads of heavy and assault
suits can be transported. Additional medium and heavy suits can hitch a ride on the
exterior as well. This is often considered more effective then bringing an LRM
configuration of the Caboose. After all an Ivor squad thinks it's an LRM-16 with over a
ton and a half of ammo. And 4 of those can be brought for the equivalent of 2 LRM-15s with
only a ton of ammo and nowhere near the durability.
There are also Q configurations focusing on military support. Mess sections and MASH units.
