BattleTech Vehicle Technical Readout
VALIDATED by Vagabond and Raven!
Type/Model: Dejemon
Tech: Inner Sphere / 3060
Config: Hydrofoil
Rules: Level 2, Standard design
Mass: 55 tons
Power Plant: 85 I.C.E.
Cruise Speed: 75.6 km/h
Maximum Speed: 118.8 km/h
Armor Type: StarSlab/N
Armament:
1 Mosin-Nagant Alpha Type RAC/2
2 Piepsk Cutter Machine Guns
Manufacturer: Moscow Ship Yards, Plant 2
Location: Bryant
Communications System: BpTAK 667L&S
Targeting & Tracking System: NS-344
==Overview==
The Dejemon is the Russians only military transport vehicle. It is being developed in great secrecy due to three things. Built far away from New Moscow, the Dejemon has had some of the tightest security during its production, and now that it has been unvieled, it is obvious why.
==Capabilities==
The Moscow Ship Yards, working closely with other military industrialists, as well as the NAIS from the Federated Commonwealth have managed to make a working plant for the RAC/2 and RAC/5. Produced at the new Mosin-Nagant factory, the RAC/2 is the ultimate weapon to cover a landing operation. Good range, good rate of fire, and excellent damage potential make the Alpha Type one of the deadliest weapons in the Russian fleet. Normally the Russians have not displayed such high tech weapons on their regular military units. They avoid hard to maintain weapons, but must have decided that the technology behind the RAC would be simple enough to teach their engineers and technicians quickly. However, this represents a disturbing trend in their military: lethality continues to climb, well it is still hard to knock them out.
The next thing that has kept this system underwraps is the development of a new tank, the Pejskahar. This light ten ton tank is very small and is desinged to fit into the nose of the Dejemon. When the Hydrofoil slows down and drops its front doors down, the little tank can charge out onto a beach head with a full platoon of infantry behind it. This nasty little development has given the Russian Navy and Marines the ability to have armor supported landings against fortified positions. Allowing them to retake bays lost to enemy action, such as what happened in the second invasion of New Moscow. The contested landing of Russian Infantry was costly, and although ultimitly successful, would have been easier with armored support.
The final surprise came as a true surprise to the invited watchers. A force of tanks and infantry dug into a shore and built up defenses as a small battle group of the Russian Navy sat off shore. The Russian defenders had painted themsleves in Cappallen colors in an effort to make a realistic simulation for the watchers. Suddenly five Dejemon's charged into the beach and came under fire from the Po Heavy tanks of the defenders. However, all five doors opened and four little tanks charged out onto the shore firing rockets and missiles. Behind them, with a loud roar, came not eight platoons of infantry, but rather twenty four men in some type of new BattleArmor, large battery packs on their backs, and machine guns and grenade launchers on their arms. They siezed the beach head quickly and disabled the tank guns with little effort. The gathered watchers dropped their mouth open in shock.
The Russians have, through the use of ingenuity, salvage, and treaty been doing their best to build a force capable of taking on BattleMech and Aerospace fighter rich armies, without having to revert to the huge defense spending those units require. The simple weapons they have developed have had enough of an impact to make Bryant one of the few BattleMech poor forces that could be considered a major threat to those around them.
==Variants==
Due to the new nature of the Dejemon, not many are deployed, but they are cheap and easy to build and can expect to hit the high seas of Bryant soon. The Federated Suns is also producing them on water rich worlds to defend needed water instilations and to act as cargo haulers.
One varient in discusion is the same as above but has a landing pad in the front for a helicopter rather then room for a tank. There are a multitude of helicopters that could be useful from such a platform, and it should be interesting to see the results.

Good design, but can we get an english translation or pronounciation guide? I'm not too proud to say that I can't pronounce a lot of this stuff. 
And when will we see this new battle armor?

Also, my price and BV match yours but I have an extra ton. Is it 14 tons of cargo instead of 13?
That would explain the BattleArmor...

Yeah, with RAC/2 and double MGs. I think it must be cargo, 'cause otherwise the Dejemon couldn't carry a Pejskahar OmniTank AND a squad of BattleArmor. That's 14 tons.
Anyhow, that's just my guess.
EDIT: Wait, I found the problem, I added only 12 tons cargo. Scratch my theories, my hand just slipped.
